Films:

ANCHORS
Dave MacFarlane | UK / 8’ 
Three friends discover they share a love of the children’s iconic book ‘Swallows and Amazons’ by Arthur Ransome which is filled with tales of sailing, adventure and a joy of the outdoors. 

IT WILL BE DIFFERENT FOR YOU
Megan Mayhew Bergman, Simon Perkins | USA / 18’
Lea Davison, a two-time Olympian and one of the most decorated American women in mountain biking, knows the toil, pain, and commitment it takes to compete at the highest level. But beyond the accolades, her relationship with the sport has been a lifelong journey of self-discovery, filled with both thrills and heartbreaks. Along the way, she found unconditional love for the ride, which unlocked the freedom to embrace risk and fuelled her passion to break down barriers for the next generation of female riders.

SH*T SWIMMER
Dirty Jack | UK / 6’
Set in the future (2028) where swimming is illegal because of sewage dumping, one self-proclaimed sports daredevil seeks to break a record swim time in sh*t water without getting sick or arrested.

UNSPOKEN ROAD

Chad Unger | US / 7’
Unspoken Road is a portrait of Deaf and Queer brother and sister, Nora and Uriel Torres. The siblings, originally from Mexico, discuss how growing up in a small town in California they experienced discrimination and isolation, but as they came of age discovered the therapeutic and life-affirming value of cycling. 

JAMIE
Darcy Hennesey | Canada / 19’
Jamie Logan – a pioneering alpinist – has survived some of the most dangerous climbs in the world. But nothing felt as life-threatening as admitting that, at age 69, she wanted to begin a new life living as a woman. This is a film that shows that love and trust can be the ultimate act of rebellion.
