Hockeyland tells the story of the memorable 2019-20 hockey season, one of the last seasons for the Eveleth-Gilbert Golden Bears and a state tournament run for the Hermantown Hawks. The film had its sold-out world premiere at DOCNYC, America’s largest documentary film festival where it received critical acclaim including:

“A must see...as fresh as a newly Zambonied sheet of ice.” (Indiewire) 

“A++++++” (Vintage MN Hockey) 

“Best to watch this film in front of a fire.” (The Guardian). 

Hockeyland will continue its festival run following these special Minnesota screenings and will be released in theaters and for home viewing later in 2022.
