Watch options. Storyline Edit. Pretty tomboy Kim Matthews, 19, used to be a champion skateboarder - but now she's stuck in a dead end job trying to support her Dad. Opportunity comes knocking in the form of a catering job in the one of the most exclusive chalets in the Alps. At first, Kim's baffled by this bizarre new world of posh people, champagne and skiing - but then she discovers snowboarding, and the chance to win some much-needed prize money at the big end-of-season competition.
But before she can become a champion again, Kim's going to have to dig deep to overcome her fears. Hard enough, without the complicating factor of Jonny, her handsome - though spoken for - boss How to marry a billionaire. Jones is also refreshingly open, and keen to share her enthusiasm about the project. And this world is completely foreign to me.
In a way this film is almost like a documentary, because it's so accurate about the British experience of the ski holiday. I mean, have you been to the Krazy Kangaruh? It's insane. With those kinds of recommendation in our ears, there's only one place to head upon arrival back in St Anton. Crowds of pink-nosed skiers with huge steins of beer bask in the sun and watch cover bands churn out Euro hits. By the time the sun drops below the horizon, half of St Anton is swaying merrily, and it's a gentle form of chaos as everybody tries drunkenly to find their skis and head back down to town to carry on drinking.
Joining the madness is a fitting way to end any time on set. For the stars and crew, it means a couple more days in St Anton before relocating to the resort of Garmisch Partenkirchen. After that, as they say, it's a wrap.
ES Money. In the film, Kim learns to snowboard from scratch - and Felicity had to do the same to play the role. She said: 'I had a three-week crash course just before filming. I love it. I'll be back on the slopes as soon as possible and I'm raring to explore the off-piste.
However, St Anton is no destination for novices - boasting some of the world's most revered off-piste terrain and attracting many of the world's greatest skiers and boarders. The resort has an inspirational range of peaks including the mighty Valluga at nearly 10,ft and the Schindler Spitze at more than 8,ft.
There is about miles of intermediate skiing between the Kapall-Gampen, Rendl and Stuben sectors of the lift network, making St Anton tough to beat. The handsome modern luxury chalet where Kim works in the film is not for rent in real life as it is actually the local Ski and Folk Museum.
And it is well worth a visit, not only to learn about St Anton's importance to the origins of modern skiing but also to dine in as it houses one of the resort's top restaurants, the aptly named Museum. But what is it really like to be a chalet girl in St Anton?
