Dominique Swain and snowboarder Marc Frank Montoya will star in the independent feature "White Air" for Universal reports Production Weekly.
The story follows Alex White, a once-promising snowboarder who now finds himself barely able to make ends meet, is working at the local garage and snowboard shop while trying to help support his mother and ailing brother.
Though able to fly sky high, Alex's preoccupation with his family's problems have left him in a rut, unable to land his jumps. After losing several local Half Pipe competitions, Alex loses faith in himself and totters on the verge of abandoning his dreams to seek financial stability.
Production is scheduled to begin May 10th in Lake Tahoe and Los Angeles under the direction of Wolfgang Wagenknecht.
Thanks to 'Karl'
