Premier showing of 'Anthropology' set for November 29

Action Sports Ministries is hosting a movie premiere for the snowboard documentary Anthropology, created by Nations Foundation.  It will take place Thursday, November 29 at 7 p.m. at Broadway Ballroom in Alexandria. It is free and open to all ages.

Pro snowboarders Nick Visconti and Ryan Paul will be on hand, and one attendee will win a free snowboard.

Anthropology follows professional snowboarder Nick Visconti through a year of his life, snowboarding, skateboarding, searching, thinking, struggling, and just living.  

Snowboarding legends Dave Downing, Andy Finch, Ryan Paul and many others also appear in the film, which portrays the positive side of snowboarding and how professional athletes were able to succeed without parties and drugs.  

Action Sports Ministries aims to provide faith-based mentoring opportunities to youth through participation in sports.

Nations Foundation is a Christian non-profit organization focused on sharing the Gospel message of Jesus Christ with this generation’s global snowboard community.

Its first film, ONEYEAR, was released in 2008 and has been shown to more than 115,000 people in live attendance around the world.
