StreetsStreets to the Peaks: 12 young athletes changing the world, here to defy the odds and show that nothing is impossible.

Only 43% of young people in inner cities complete the weekly recommendation of physical activity. This is reflected in the sport of trail running which is still largely the domain of middle-class white men. By 2027 the Alpine Run Project with John McAvoy, Nike, JD Sports and YBB will help 100,000 young people from diverse backgrounds in cities across Europe take part in trail running. By doing so this year, these 12 runners are part of a movement that will change the face of sport.

From city streets to the epic alpine trail race at UTMB, this documentary captures their emotive and powerful journey, to inspire change.


FlowFlow features The Trailrippers – Nathan and Ruben de Vaux – two mountain biking brothers from the Dyfi Valley in Mid Wales who are already making their mark on the British MTB scene.

Riding and racing mean everything to Nathan and Ruben and this short film tells their family story with the help of their Mum, Ina. Together, they tell us how they first got into riding and then racing and the benefits and challenges that neurodivergence brings to their riding and how riding bikes helps them regulate their lives.


The HagensThe Hagens: Professional freeride skiers Stian Hagen and Andrea Binning spent over a decade traveling the world. When Andrea became pregnant, they faced a big question. How much would they need to change their lives in order to raise a family?
Now, with their two children, Camila and Aksel, aged nine and twelve, we join them on their journey to see how their parenting choices have shaped them. Explore the world of this remarkable family where outdoor sports and adventures still play a central role.

 


Thrawn
Photo by Brodie Hood

Thrawn: In the Scottish Highlands, the word “thrawn” means “stubborn,” but stubborn for a good reason—a virtuous struggle to make the most of what’s available. Professional snowboarder Lesley McKenna was raised on this innate tenacity, and has spent her life pushing the boundaries of her sport and advocating for the people and place that shaped her.

Like many other mountain areas across Europe, the Cairngorms are facing the impact of environmental and economical challenges first-hand to snowsports and the culture. But motivated to fight for what they have, the community are coming together to find ways to protect wintersports and the playgrounds for generations to come.

“We’re going to have to roll up our sleeves and do it for our god-damn selves. Because nobody is coming to do it for us.” says Lauren MacCallum, activist and board member of the Cairngorms National Park Authority.

“We can have it all, if we just work together.”

Director Hannah Bailey explains: “the Cairngorms breeds a special kind of folk who make do with what they have, and make use of every opportunity out there. In times of environmental and societal uncertainty, this community virtue of adaptability and resilience is more important than ever. This story is an example of that.”


fuegoFuego: From Guatemala to Peru via Bolivia, for two months the dream team scoured the most beautiful spots to make amazing memories and bring back breathtaking images.

From their arrival at the foot of the Fuego volcano the day before its historic eruption, to the colourful facades of Barrio Chualluma in La Paz, through the geological formations of the Valle de las Animas and the contrasts of the Auzangate, without forgetting meeting with the Cholitas Escaladoras women from the Aymaras indigenous community who climb and conquer summits! Kilian has been meeting these people and experiencing the craziest spots.


2.4Two Point Four: Not your typical family holiday, but this is not your typical family. Leo Houlding, his wife Jess, their two children Freya (9yrs) and Jackson (5yrs) climb Norway’s national mountain (Stetind, near Narvik in the Arctic Circle), via a 2000ft big wall.

 


Lost ConnectionsLost Connections: Alex Seghal and Calum Maclean embark on a human-powered journey through Knoydart, driven by curiosity and a passion for sustainable adventure. As they paddle and hike through the diverse landscape, a deeper connection with the land and Knoydart’s rich stories unfold. This light-footed adventure, is a reminder that sometimes the best journeys are the simplest.

New Way upA New Way Up: The Karakoram mountains are known for their huge scale and jaw dropping beauty. Nestled within them is Gulmit Tower, a technical granite pinnacle that has never been summited. Previous teams have often failed because the highly glaciated terrain makes the approach by foot long and treacherous. Fabi Buhl and Will Sim, both experienced alpinists, have a new idea. They plan to harness the power of the sky and use paragliders to fly over the glaciated terrain, reaching the base of the climb in hours, not days. Follow them on their epic journey as they attempt to set a new direction for Himalayan climbing.


El GalivanEl Gavilán: Rising out of the arid Mexican Desert lies a 900 ft ship’s prow of elegant limestone sporting a 9-pitch 5.13 established in the 90s by Jeff Jackson. A cutting-edge big wall free climb at the time, this route shut down hard men for years. Shrouded in mysticism, the bolts rusted and the holds collected dust until a couple of young gals from Canada decided to give it a try.

Four Peaks FinaleGreen Space Dark Skies Above The Earth Below The Stars: Human-powered art film created with the help of thousands of volunteers across the 4 highest mountains of the UK. This ambitious project was about connecting with and celebrating the UK’s wilder places in a unique and inclusive way. This was made possible with the project’s own ground-breaking GPS lighting technology. We created vast lightshows across mountainsides while safely involving thousands of choreographed human ‘pixels’, many of whom had never climbed a mountain before. This is a slightly different edit to the version shown at the Festival.


moving mountainsMoving Mountains: Faced with his wife’s life-changing diagnosis of Alzheimer’s, Nick Gardner felt the pull of the hills. This film follows his attempt to climb all the Munros as an 80-plus-year-old. This film, made by students on the FMSU9B8 Documentary Production module at Stirling University, is a gentle portrayal of his love and determination.


No Lost ShoesNo Lost Shoes: Our shoes go lots of places, across vast distances, and over many miles. But eventually, no matter how much we care for them, our shoes break down and usually get thrown away. Max Romey wanted to find out what happens to his old shoes, and in his film No Lost Shoes, highlights the full scale of the problem.

 

 


PawelPawel: Cape Wrath Odyssey: Pawel Cymbalista’s record breaking run of the Cape Wrath Trail in Spring 2023. Pawel took just over three days to cover the 240-mile (386km) Cape Wrath Trail from Fort William to Cape Wrath. He was also the first person to finish the route unsupported, carrying all the food and clothing he needed to sustain him along the way.

 


Silent StewardSilent Steward: This is a story of saving the seasons and healing the soul. Tele Dan has gone from medic in the military to Silent Steward of Crystal Mountain, picking up trash in the summer to feel better shredding in the winter. Here he reveals the realities under the snow and inspires us to go the extra mile in preserving the mountain.

 


soloSolo: Solo is the account of one woman’s mission to run solo and unsupported across mountain ranges on six continents—overcoming obstacles, conquering fears and finding the joy in achieving her goals absolutely alone. This version is slightly longer that the version we screened at the festival

 

 


StackedStacked: Three sea stacks, two climbers, and just one day to complete it all. You’ve seen insane climbing challenges on before…but here is a completely pointless challenge. After suffering on The Long Hope, Robbie Phillips and Alex Moore decided they hadn’t had enough adventure for one climbing trip. The Challenge – Climb ‘The Old Man of Hoy’, ‘Am Buichaille’, and ‘The Old Man of Stoer’ in 24hrs. Why? Why Not – It’s a pointless climbing adventure film about a pointless climbing challenge.

There are stacks of other great films by Robbie on his Youtube channel


Swimpacking: You know bike packing?! We’ll it’s a little like bike packing… but you swim! This short film shares a brief introduction to the sport of swimpacking as we follow Annie Voigt on a short winter camping adventure. This is a slightly different edit to the version shown at the Festival.

 


Tempo 2Tempo 2: A conceptual exploration of the shared feelings between music and mountains — Tempo II. Movements in Jungle is set in the world’s largest urban jungle, exploring styles of Brazilian drumming and trail running.


Adam RajaThe Ascension Series – Adam Raja: Part 1 of The Ascension Series – tells the story of Adam, a young Glaswegian with Pakistani heritage who spent his youth embroiled in gang culture, knife crime, and drug and alcohol abuse. Until he set foot in the mountains, and there he found the confidence and community that redefined his life. It is a story that explores cultural heritage, identity, and connection to a landscape. At its simplest, it’s the tale of one man’s journey to becoming comfortable with the person he truly is.


Hamish FrostThe Ascension Series – Hamish Frost: One of Europe’s leading adventure photographers, Hamish Frost lives twin lives. This film explores the side of himself he has kept hidden from the outdoor community. A story of confidence and connection and a reminder of the importance of diversity in the great outdoors.

 


Last Ski Maker in ScotlandThe Last Ski Maker in Scotland: The uncertain future of skiing in Scotland has inspired Jamie Kunka to make sustainable skis out of wood. Based in his cabin in the Scottish Highlands, Jamie is the last ski maker in Scotland. Jamie began teaching himself how to make his wooden skis after watching a Vimeo Staff Pick by Wyatt Visuals about a wooden-surfboard maker in Vancouver Island, Canada. https://vimeo.com/27702618. Ten years on, The Last Ski Maker in Scotland is part homage to this original film and part a celebration of the power of film to inspire us all.


Long WallThe Long Wall: You have to log into Vimeo to watch this, but this is easy and free to do.Have you ever pondered what the longest climbing route in the world is?You may have guessed that it was the great Mt. Thor on Baffin Island, Canada (4,101ft), or perhaps even the Azeem ridge on the Trango Towers, Pakistan (7,400ft), both impressively large in size, but even these are dwarfed in comparison to the unlikely record holder.

Nestled amongst the lush hillsides of upstate New York sits a bluff of quartzite rock known as the Gunks. Regarded as the birthplace of American climbing, its short yet mighty wall stretches more than 9000 ft… horizontally. Established by Dan Rosanstein and Ken Nichols in 1987, the Great Wall of China route is a masterpiece of esoterica which traverses the entire wall, its greatest crux may be jug rash, bugs, and dog walkers.

One Dream. Two Dirtbags Ben Wilbur & Drew Herder. 9000+ ft of Climbing.


Nine WheelsThe Nine Wheels: The film tells the story of the Schneeberger family a.k.a The 9 Wheels. Mountain bike stars of the future, Emric (10) and Raoul (13) are home schooled by their parents Toni and Laetitia. They live in their motorhome going from bike park to bike park across Europe, a decision prompted by the discovery of a neurodegenerative disease in Laetitia. This film explores what it is like to live with a disability, brotherly love, the devotion of parents and ultimately, what it is like to live life one day at a time. A family living life to the fullest. This film is packed with emotion, soul, hope and high power riding scenes!

 

Films from the 2022 Festival

Maneuvers:manoeuvres “Maneuvers (Manöver)” is an experimental animation combining skiing with stop-motion animation. Produced by Level 1, directed by Sämi Ortlieb. Excerpted from our 2019 feature film “Romance”. More Videos and Merchandise at https://www.level1.ski/

 


Blueprint:blueprint Blueprint started with a simple idea – to watch sections of trail come to life before the viewer’s eyes. Once we broke ground here in Cumberland, BC, the abundance of dirt was the ultimate inspiration to challenge ourselves to build something that pushed our creativity further than we had planned. The corners were just asking to get stacked bigger, faster, and smoother! We visualized, developed, and pushed the limits to create something special for all riders to enjoy: a hand-built, blue square level flow trail you’ll want to lap all day long.

I’ve been building one-off features and short free ride lines for more than a decade, but I’ve never built a full-length trail before, let alone something that’s inclusive and equally enjoyable for all skill levels. In order to pull this off, Scott Bell and I needed a trusted, seasoned crew. Trail builder Chris Snodgrass of the Ridgeline Crew was our main man, and photographer Jarrett Lindal was on board to capture the still photography. Everyone brought their own unique skill sets to the table, and at the end of the project, we all became trail builders.

I hope our story inspires you to get creative, contribute to your mountain bike community, and have fun with it! For trail builders the trophy is so much more than the trail, it’s an extremely rewarding process. When you have a good crew to share those moments with, it adds a whole new layer of passion to it.

Disclaimer: Always build trails legally. Blueprint was built with the support of the landowners through the United Riders of Cumberland’s trail application process. These private lands are managed by Mosaic Forest Management for which the United Riders of Cumberland has an agreement to build, maintain, and use trails. We encourage everyone to get involved in building trails that are legal, well-designed, and sustainable. Please reach out to your local trail association or visit IMBA.com to learn how to you can get involved before breaking ground.


The Fortress Ghosts:Fortress Ghosts When Fortress Mountain closed in 2004, the once vibrant ski resort quickly became a remnant of the past. Two decades later, the far side chair, frontside chair, and day lodge remain standing. While the guests have disappeared, ghosts remain. Inside the relict structures are stories of ski culture and community.

Skiers Mark Abma and Callum Pettit explore the past and ponder the future at this once iconic Alberta destination.


Ardverikie Wall:ardverikie wall Soloing the classic multipitch Scottish rock climb, Ardverikie Wall HS on Binnein Shuas.  Dave says, “It was my first time filming myself climbing in this way. I’ll hopefully improve on it in future videos on this channel. I’d love to do more of these, it was so much fun”!


Across the Sound:across the sound A film by Alfie Smith and Louis MacMillan, follows the adventure of young hill runner Louis, from his home on the Keills Peninsula to the island of Jura to run the stunning route of the Jura Fell Race. The film was shot by young filmmaker Alfie, (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?…) with music coming from the awesome bands Talisk (https://www.facebook.com/TaliskMusic) and Fourth Moon.

(https://www.facebook.com/FourthMoonMusic) An island of rugged coastline, fierce whirlpools, and soaring mountains, Jura is one of the last true wilderness areas in Scotland. Despite its remoteness, the island can be reached from the mainland in under an hour with the Jura Passenger Ferry, (https://www.facebook.com/JuraPassenge…) for unforgettable experiences and adventures in this breathtaking landscape.


Explore Your Boundaries – Argyll and the Isles:explore your boundaries Round the world cyclists Mark Beaumont and Markus Stitz teamed up with Jenny Graham, the fastest woman to cycle around the world, and filmmaker and photographer Maciek Tomiczek to explore the boundary of Scotland’s Adventure Coast.


Flow:Flow An aerial and symphonic journey with skier Sam Favret, in the heart of the closed resort of Chamonix, during this very special winter of 2021. A dose of unreality, serenity and Sam’s powerful skiing. But above all the pleasure of rediscovering a playground back to its wild state. Shot on Racing FPV Drone and Dji Mavic Pro 2


Link Sar:Link Sar Standing at 7041 Metres, Link Sar is said to be the last great unclimbed mountain of the Karakoram range in Pakistan. The Mountain has seen 9 failed attempts since 1970, including a 2017 attempt by the team of Graham Zimmerman, Steve Swenson and Mark Richey. In 2019 the team returned bolsered by the addition of Mark Richey for one more attempt on the unscaled peak. This is their story.


E11 Lexicon – not the film we screened,e11 lexicon which is not available, but Dave MacLeod’s attempt a week later when it was a wee bit colder! In 2006 Dave climbed the first trad route in the world to get the grade of E11. Fifteen years later, Neil Gresham made the first ascent of Lexicon in the Lake District, grading E11. Dave wondered if he could still climb this huge grade.


The Farmer:the farmer Meet the Farmer—Dave Van Dame, a staple of Alta for the past 48 years. Sweetgrass Productions and Alta Ski Area teamed up to tell the visual story of Alta’s most famous snow farmer.

In memory of David Van Damme. 6 September 1947 – 17 October 2021

 


Agags Groove – Free solo:Agags A free solo ascent of Agag’s Groove in Glen Coe with Kevin Shields.

 


GBDURO – Maiden Race:gbduro maiden race Despite a career of world-firsts in endurance cycling expeditions, Shimano ambassador Mark Beaumont, the current round-the-world record holder, had never competed in anything other than what amounts to very extreme solo time trials. This summer though, for the first time in his career, he entered a race. And not just any race, arguably the toughest endurance race in the UK, GBDURO. The drama was captured in a new Shimano video called MAIDEN RACE.


Ocean to Asgard:ocean to asgard Last summer Bronwyn Hodgins, Jacob Cook, Thor Stewart and Zack Goldberg-Poch set out on a six week multi-sport expedition to Baffin Island in northern Canada. The team were extremely successful, putting up big first ascents on some of the world’s most iconic wilderness big walls. Starting in the remote fly-in community of Pangnirtung, the four friends travelled by packraft up the ocean fjord and then continued by foot into the mountains. After climbing Mount Asgard (three times!) they got back in the rafts and paddled the raging, glacier-fed Weasel river to descend the valley. On their way downriver the team made an important stop, as a party of four they climbed the south ridge of Mount Thor, for Thor to stand on top of his namesake mountain! During their 40 day human-powered adventure, through shared experience and hardship, the team formed friendships more meaningful than any summit. The film provides a window into what it felt like to be out there in a small team moving through a giant, remote landscape and the personal, human experiences of big wall expedition climbing.


The Run Home:the run home This is the story of Louis, a 17 year old schoolboy from the west coast of Scotland. The film follows Louis on his six-mile run home from the school bus through the wilderness of the Keills Peninsula, overlooking the sound of Jura. From the village of Tayvallich, the route is unmarked through ancient woodland and rugged open hill, passing by standing stones and hill forts. Seeing another human is rare; meeting herds of red deer, pods of dolphins, and sea Eagles are more likely encounters. On a warm summer’s day, the route is easy to find, a far cry from the dark days of winter when a head torch, map and compass are required to make it home. Music: Montreal by Talisk


between wallsBetween Walls: In spring 2019 gigantic walls of snow piled up along the pass road to the Timmelsjoch, Austria. Johanna Bolanos Cabrera and Jasmijn Hanegraef grabbed their longboards and took the chance to downhill through this stunning scenery. Speed is what the girls are living for!


East Mounth MunrosEast Mounth Munros: In May 2021 Dundee runners Amy Gilligan and Dominic Williams set off to run all 14 of the East Mounth Munros south of the River Dee and east of Glenshee. Their aim was to complete them in less than 24 hours… Their friend David Matthews set off on the, almost as challenging, task of filming them. Amy, Dom and David are all members of Dundee Mountain Club


The Running Pastor:The Running Pastor In the middle of the cold North Atlantic, craggy mountaintops rise straight up out of the sea. And it’s here, in the rugged Faroe Islands, that local pastor Sverri Steinholm tends to his flocks. Plural. Born the son of a shepherd, Sverri’s now a pastor. The job can get heavy, so to clear his mind and feed his soul, he runs over these weatherworn cliffs. For Sverri, trail running is spiritual.
