Every hockey player of a certain age knows the climate is changing. We grew up skating on ponds for four months a year, but now we’re lucky if we can skate for just four days.
This film brings together an incredible range of voices—Hall of Fame superstars, heads of state, nomads fighting to save their glaciers, shamans defending their jungles, hockey moms, Maasai warriors, and reindeer herders—all united in a shared mission: to save both the game and the planet they love. We hope that together, we can make a difference—and that we haven’t already played the Last Game.
