In the remote wilderness of Eastern Oregon, pro snowmobiler Ross Robinson escapes the pressures of competition by disconnecting from the world. Disconnect is an intimate and adrenaline-fueled documentary that follows Ross as he trades snow for dirt, cross-training on his dirt bike at his family’s secluded cabin, where the only tracks are the ones he leaves behind.
For Ross, the cabin isn’t just a retreat; it’s a place where he learned to ride, to push his limits, and to embrace the raw power of nature. Through stunning footage of him tearing through dense forests, rocky trails, and sweeping mountain vistas, the film captures the thrill of Ross’s two-wheeled journey, showcasing his daring stunts, the spills, and the triumphs that come with pushing himself to the edge. It's a story about finding balance, embracing roots, and the joy of unplugging from the noise to reconnect with what truly matters.
