How to Run 100 Miles | (USA, 2018, 29 minutes)
The odds were stacked against Jayson Sime early in life: poverty, homelessness, dyslexia, bullying. But he learned to fight. In 2017, he entered his first 100-mile mountain ultra marathon, betting on his lifelong resilience to carry him to the finish line.

Ice & Palms | (Germany, 2018, 32 minutes) - subtitled
Bikepacking, summiting mountains and skiing some iconic lines along the way, friends Max and Jochen have one dream - 5 weeks, 1,800 km and 35,000 vertical metres self-propelled across the Alps.

Craig’s Reaction | (USA, 2018, 24 minutes)
Ever since taking a 30-metre whipper in 2002 that left him with spinal injuries and only one leg, climber Craig DeMartino has led one hell of a life, including lauded First Disabled and In-A-Day Ascents on El Capitan. But his day-to-day life story is the one that should be making headlines.

Brotherhood of Skiing | (USA, 2018, 10 minutes)
Since 1973, the National Brotherhood of Skiers has overcome barriers by bringing soul, smiles and a party to the mountain.
