Stephan Peterson and Sonya Ballantyne co-directors of THE DEATH TOUR

Welcome to the Following Films podcast! I'm Chris Maynard, your host. Today, we have a special episode featuring Stephan Peterson (Ice Road Truckers on History Channel) and Sonya Ballantyne, co-directors of THE DEATH TOUR THE DEATH TOUR is a road trip movie like none other which takes viewers on an epic journey to a part of the world rarely captured on camera.  Executive Produced by wrestling legend Chris Jericho, audiences experience these remote communities through the wrestler’s eyes as they drive through the frozen tundra, sleep on ring mats after shows, and face their inner demons. Some hope that surviving the Death Tour will propel them to wrestling superstardom while others, their bodies battered and scarred, head North for one last chance to hear the roar of an adoring crowd.
