  • A normal love story, spanning 160 years.

    Your Last Breath unravels the incredible true story of an extreme skier who was suspended between life and death in the mountains of Norway.

    1876 – Christopher leaves his young family behind to work in Norway. He will map the uncharted mountains for the very first time.

    1999 – Anna’s body freezes after an extreme-skiing accident and her heart stops. Four hours later, it miraculously starts beating again.

    2015 – Freija, a top flight business woman, has just lost her father. She travels to scatter his ashes in Norway.

    2036 – Nicholas was ‘suspended in animation’ as a new born. He explains the importance of Anna’s incredible true story, not just for him, but for people across the world.

    Fringe First Winner Your Last Breath returns by popular demand for a special limited run this winter.
