Nippon Cinema   ª 

"Ski Jumping Pairs" is an incredible new ski jumping event where two jumpers share one pair of skis. This is a hilarious mockumentary about how the bizarre sport became an official competition in the 2006 Torino Olympics. "The hilarious yet serious shots emerge from my conviction that being serious about something so crazy is the most beautiful thing a person can do." - Riichiro MASHIMA
