"It's not the money, it's the thrill of winning." Freestyle Digital Media has released an official trailer for an indie documentary called Classic, when originally premiered in 2019 at the Denver Film Festival. A century-old tradition in the small town of Nenana, Alaska (see Google Maps), is the "Ice Classic". Anyone stands to win over $300,000 as long they can guess, to the minute, when the river ice melts by submitting their best guess for time/date. This heartwarming doc considers the contest as an important source of community pride. Starring the townspeople of Nenana, Alaska. This charming doc film examines how important the "Ice Classic" contest is to all the locals, who are generally resistant to big change, and because supporting their community and fellow townspeople is more important than anything. This looks like a fun doc to watch and a fun profile of a funky little contest in a tiny, snowy town most of you have probably never heard of before. ›››
