Synopsis

A funny and heartfelt drama following three ice skating instructors in the aftermath of a freak accident.
Skating instructors Donal, Noa and Gus would rather be at their local ice rink than anywhere else in the world. Joking, gossiping and watching over the ice below.
But when they witness a horrific accident on shift, their safe haven is shattered, and their greatest passion becomes the very thing they’re afraid of. There are some things even a Zamboni can’t smooth over.
Zamboni is a funny, existential dramedy by Lex Joyce about friendship, trauma, and wishing you had a river you could skate away on.
