The film features Willie O'Ree, the first black player in the NHL, former professional hockey player Akim Aliu, and current hockey stars P.K. Subban and Wayne Simmonds.


According to the synopsis, “The film explores the deep BIPOC roots of the game, dating back to 1865 and the Colored Hockey League of the Maritimes (CHL), the first fully professional league, which not only introduced slapshot but shaped the game. . of the hockey we know today”.


“Davis exposes racist patterns that span generations, and even highlights stories of how players seeking change have been pressured by sports institutions to remain silent.”


"'Black Ice' is a sports documentary that, like the best examples of the genre, connects with hockey fans and the general public alike," said Barry Brooker, Chairman and CEO of Grindstone Entertainment Group. “The challenges facing BIPOC players, which are both universal and unique to the sport, are explored with sensitivity and seriousness, but the film is also wildly entertaining, with real-life characters you'll animate. We are thrilled to introduce this film to AMC theatrical audiences."


Davis is represented by Great North Artists Management and WME. The acquisition was negotiated by Roadside co-chairman Howard Cohen and Vinay Virmani of Uninterrupted Canada.
