You probably remember the Uninvited from their first eponymous full-length back in 2019. It was one of the more influential all-girl films to come out at the time, and most of those up and comers that contributed footage are now well into their careers. In a big way, we have Jess Kimura to thank for that, as she set out to provide a platform for these girls—and to say she accomplished that is an understatement.
Looking back at 2019 now, it's crazy to see how much Jess has contributed (aside from countless trailblazing video parts). The Uninvited once focused on snowboarders with bigger hearts than budget, and after this weekend, it's safe to say that's changed ten fold. Self-funded video projects got replaced with 50k prize purses, with the Uninvited now growing into the most anticipated event in women's snowboarding. We knew the second annual showing wouldn't be one to miss, so we headed over to Park City with the Torment handy cam to capture it all from the sidelines.
