Thursday, January 9 Lineup
French Skydiver Remi Angeli must face his fears in order to explore new expressions of movement while BASE jumping in Mexico. On the other side of his fear he discovers life in its purest form.
Lhotse (23 mins)
It’s not always what we achieve that defines us, rather it is why we achieve such things that creates clarity in our existence. In 2018, Hilaree Nelson and Jim Morrison completed the first ski descent of the 27,940-foot Lhotse, the fourth-highest mountain in the world. This is their story.
Into the Canyon (45 mins)
When filmmaker/photographer Pete McBride and writer Kevin Fedarko set out on a 1200 km journey on foot through the entire length of the Grand Canyon the challenge becomes far more than they bargained for. Into the Canyon is a story of extreme physical hardship where the bonds of friendship are stretched and the timeless beauty of this sacred place becomes meditation and ultimately a cautionary tale for our complex relationship with the natural world.
The Motivator (4 mins)
Filmmaker Aaron Hitchins turns his camera on the person who has motivated him to lead a life connected to the outdoors: his mother, Maureen.
The Ladakh Project (13 mins)
Seven Days, three rivers, one woman. This is the story of Nouria Newman's solo kayak adventure in the Indian Himalaya.
Surfer Dan (8 mins)
In a time when it can feel like you need to fly to the opposite side of the globe to find adventure and challenge, Surfer Dan proves that with dedication, grit and a little creativity you might already have all you need outside you own backdoor.
REEL ROCK 14: The High Road (17 mins)
Highball bouldering ace Nina Williams flexes her guns and tests her nerves well into the no-fall zone.
Hors Piste (6 mins)
The two best mountain rescue workers of the region are ready for their new mission. Despite their professionalism and their determination, it will not go as planned...
Friday, January 10 Lineup
Charge (4 mins)
Four top freeskiers and a World Champion drone pilot are dropped at Chatter Creek, BC for one week. Their instructions: charge as hard as you can everyday.
Thabang (13 mins)
Thabang Madiba somehow found his way into the world of trail running and in the last few years has become everyone’s favourite in the South African trail scene.
Home (19 mins)
Between 2011 and 2015 UK adventurer Sarah Outen traversed the globe by bike, kayak and rowing boat, travelling over 32,000 km by human power alone. The solo trip took its toll, and a violent storm on the Pacific takes Sarah to the physical and mental brink.
Circle of the Sun (5 mins)
Steep mountains, the ocean, the sun, and the aurora borealis. One rotation of the sun high in the Arctic on skis equals one day of magic.
Camel Finds Water (9 mins)
Trevor found the hull of an abandoned fishing boat in a field. He brought it home and built it back to a sea-worthy state over the course of a summer. Then, he took it on its maiden voyage to British Columbia in search of waves.
The Imaginary Line (11 mins)
In an act of political solidarity, a team from Mexico and the U.S.A. assemble with the sole purpose of establishing a slackline that crosses the border between them. In a world that is constantly tearing us apart, they come together to cross an imaginary line and tell a different story.
Life of Pie (12 mins) 14A
When Jen Zeuner and Anne Keller moved to the tiny, conservative high desert town of Fruita, Colorado almost twenty years ago, it was not on the map as far as mountain biking was concerned and they were on the fringe and a bit ostracized. Now they’re at the very heart and soul of the community.
Gone Tomorrow: Kentucky Ice Climbing (20 mins) 14A
Ice climbing in Kentucky?! This adventure documentary takes the audience for a bourbon-fueled ride deep into the bushy hollers of Appalachia with a crew of harmless misfits as they race to search out and climb new ice routes before they're gone.
Danny Daycare (4 min)
In his latest film Danny MacAskill takes on some child care the only way he knows how... by going for a wee bike ride around Scotland!
