Blank Patterns is a collection of athlete portraits following Jacob Bélanger, Emma Patterson, and Ugo Troubat. Through their individual stories, the film explores the experiences, choices, and communities that shaped the lives they lead today. While each has taken a different path, together they reflect the many ways people find their place within skiing and contribute to the culture in their own way.
