The line between Good and Evil
Ben Clark (2019)
The Line Between Good and Evil traces the route of Hilaree Nelson, on her two-decade vision to summit and ski Papsura, an attractive mountain 21,165 ft in the Indian Himalaya. Papsura, the peak of evil, reigns over its nearest rival Dharmsura, the peak of good (21,148 ft.). The film follows Hilaree's journey from her first Indian Himalayan expedition in 1999 until 2017, and exposes the commitment to the line she would ski and the line she would have to walk for half her life to attempt it. This film is a harrowing account of the deepest commitment to the grips of dreams.The line between Good and Evil

Rise
(2019)
Jacopo Larcher's pursuit to resolve 'Tribe', possibly the world's hardest trad climb, in Cadarese, Italy. For Larcher, this route represents not only 'the most difficult thing I’ve ever climbed' but also, and above all, the end of an odyssey that began 6 years ago when he first started to delve into the trad climbing game. This venture took Larcher from the rudimentary basics of climbing with nuts and friends to cutting edge trad repeats as well as huge big wall ascents, and over the years he has rapidly transformed into one of the most versatile climbers in the world. Tribe, with no fixed gear and climbed while placing all pro on lead, stands as testament to Larcher’s vision, ability and evolution as a climber.

Pobeda
(2018)
Sakha is a region of highs, lows, and little else. It’s home to Pik Pobeda, the highest mountain in Siberia, and where the lowest temperature in the Northern Hemisphere was recorded - a deadly -71.3C. It’s also the desolate and hostile landscape in which alpinists Tamara Lunger and Simone Moro found themselves in February 2018, preparing to attempt the first-ever winter ascent of this 3003m frozen monolith. A record-setting expedition in an environment that makes rescue impossible.
