Explorer: The Last Tepui
Director
Uma equipe de escaladores de elite tenta escalar o penhasco de um tepui para levar ao topo o renomado biólogo Bruce Means, de 79 anos. O explorador na National Geographic Mark Synnott, se une ao escalador Honnold, em seu primeiro projeto de escalada após "Free Solo".
The Sanctity of Space
Seventy-five years after Brad Washburn, one of the greatest aerial mountain photographers of all time, first shot Alaska’s Denali Mountain from the open door of an airplane, climbing buddies Renan Ozturk, Freddie Wilkinson, and Zack Smith look at some of his mountain photographs and have this crazy idea. Rather than go up, their dream is to go sideways across the range’s most foreboding peaks, the Moose’s Tooth massif. It’s a fresh new way to explore the same landscape Washburn first discovered. As the group endures rough conditions, disintegrating ropes, and constant rockfall, their desire to be the first to complete the audacious line grows into an obsession. But friendships begin to fray when Renan suffers a near fatal brain injury, forcing all three partners to decide what’s most important to them.

Ashes to Ashes
Cinematography
America has yet to heal from the trauma of its darkest era, and Winfred Rembert is living proof of that. Rembert, who lived on a plantation, joined the civil rights movement as a teen and was put to work on a chain gang, is a rare survivor of a lynching attempt. Decades later, he still carries the scars. “That lynching is on my back, and it’s dragging me down, even today,” he says. As he etches the history, bloodsoaked and cruel, into leatherwork, fellow artist Dr. Shirley Jackson Whitaker organizes a different kind of ceremony to search for healing. “It’s not just black history,” she says. “This is American history.”

Life Coach
Director
Climber and filmmaker Renan Ozturk makes the pilgrimage to the toothy and harsh landscape of Alaska’s Ruth Glacier every year. This time around, he and fellow climber Alex Honnold have their sights set on a beautiful route up Mount Dickey. But the weather is horrendous.

Mountain
Director of Photography
Apenas três séculos atrás, escalar uma montanha seria considerado perto da loucura. A idéia quase não existia que paisagens selvagens pudessem ter qualquer tipo de atração. Os picos eram lugares de perigo e não de beleza. Por que, então, estamos atraídos para as montanhas aos milhões? A MONTANHA nos mostra a força fascinante de lugares altos - e seu poder contínuo para moldar nossas vidas e nossos sonhos.

For Leighan Falley, Alaska is more than home - it’s a calling. Leighan spent years as a ski guide and climber on the Alaskan range. But after becoming a mother, she quit guiding and took to the skies as a mountain pilot, bringing her daughter along for the ride.

"Valley Uprising" is the riveting, unforgettable tale of this bold rock climbing tradition in Yosemite National Park: half a century of struggle against the laws of gravity -- and the laws of the land.
