SKATING TO NEW YORK is a contemporary coming-of-age adventure about five boys on a small-town Canadian high school hockey team, who live to skate. After losing a big game, they decide to do something never attempted before – skate across Lake Ontario to New York on the coldest day of the year.

Frank Scheck at The Hollywood Reporter says SKATING TO NEW YORK:

“….does an excellent job of capturing its icy setting”

Daniel Gold in The New York Times writes that SKATING TO NEW YORK is:

“…..distinguished by its long, beautiful shots of the lads on the numbing, trailless expanse, dots marking a vast blank slate.”
