“Evolution Of Dreams” tells the story of Eva Walkner and Jackie Paaso and their love of skiing and the mountains. Both start their careers in racing: as alpine ski racers and mogul skiers, respectively. The big goal for the two is an Olympic gold medal, but many injuries and setbacks shatter this dream.

A few years later, they discovered a new passion in freeriding and celebrated great successes. Eva won the overall victory on the Freeride World Tour twice, Jackie came second once and won the most prestigious freeride event “Verbier Xtreme”.

Together with ski guide Angelika Kaufmann, the two athletes want to ski the west flank of the world-famous Eiger. But Jackie is injured during the preparations. A race against time begins.
