Every year, over a thousand climbers try to reach the summit of Mount Everest, with the annual record for successful attempts currently standing at 633. But of that number, nearly half were Sherpas - the mountain's unsung heroes. Yet the Sherpa community has remained secretive about their nation, culture and experiences living in the shadow of the world's highest mountain. Now, for the first time, they open the door into their world. Without the expertise of the Sherpas, only the hardiest and most skilful climbers would succeed. Every day they risk their lives for the safety of others, yet they seek neither glory nor reward, preferring to stay in the background. Following the stories of four such Sherpas - Phurba, Ngima, Ngima Tenji and Gelu - this film reveals the reality of their daily lives, not just up the mountain, but with their families after they return home.

Pro-climber Mina Leslie-Wujastyk is one of the world’s best outdoor boulderers, with multiple ascents of 8a+ and some of the boldest first female ascents in the world such as Careless Torque, 8a under her belt. However, while she could be out on rock enjoying fresh air and success, she chooses to dedicate much of her time to training and competing on the world cup circuit, where she isn’t quite as good. Why? This is what Project Mina tries to work out, creating more than just a climbing film – it’s a story about dedication, struggle, determination and finding your way, exploring the moments in-between the top-outs and trophies we’re so used to seeing.

Mini Cattle Dog, Whisper, rides on the back of Dean Potter as they wingsuit fly at 120 mph, while their love, Jen Rapp, assists and hopes for their safety.

When Dogs Fly tracks this untraditional family’s journey to make Whisper the world’s first wingsuit BASE-jumping dog. This offbeat film pushes everyone to question what’s right or wrong – and ultimately if “…this joy will lead to harm or death.”

Directed by Gilles Chappaz.

En los sombríos campamentos del valle de Yosemite, los alpinistas crearon un estilo de vida contracultural de beatniks vagabundos y fiestas salvajes que chocaba con los valores conservadores del Servicio de Parques Nacionales. Y en las paredes, generación tras generación han superado los límites de la escalada, compitiendo entre sí por la supremacía en los acantilados de Yosemite. "Valley Uprising" es la historia fascinante e inolvidable de esta atrevida tradición de escalada en roca en el Parque Nacional de Yosemite: medio siglo de lucha contra las leyes de la gravedad y las leyes de la tierra.
