Greenwich Entertainment has acquired U.S. and Canadian rights to the documentary “Buried: The 1982 Alpine Meadows Avalanche,” a gripping account of the deadliest avalanche in U.S. ski resort history. Greenwich plans to release the documentary — winner of the Audience Award at Telluride’s Moutainfilm Festival – in theaters in New York, San Francisco and Northern California on Sept. 23, expanding to additional markets thereafter. A 45-day exclusive theatrical window will be followed by a release on streaming platforms and DVD on Nov. 8.
Locals Jared Drake and Steven Siig directed and produced the film, which takes viewers back to the catastrophic avalanche that hit Alpine Meadows Ski Area in March 1982. | buriedfilm.com
