► ALTAITUDE (Belgium, 2018) - Dir. Dominique Snyers

Sinopse: Everything is bigger in the Altai, the mountainous frontier between Mongolia, China, and Russia. This is what Damian and Dom discover there, skiing the high summits for three weeks and enduring early spring storms.

Opening up to the vastness, they must overcome their differences and learn to survive together, totally isolated at their high-altitude base camp - a tiny yurt in an expansive terrain of snow.

Once liberated from the modern electronic appendages, Damien, 19 years old, immediately enters into resonance with the Altai Mountains of the Tavan Bogd, the Five Saints. He is the one opening the door to the sacred dimension of the place and to the interaction that its inhabitants nurture with them.

French dialogues subtitled in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, German, Russian, Italian.

► ARTE E OFÍCIO NA LUA - O DESAFIO (Brasil, 2021) - Dir. André Portugal Braga

► BAATO (USA, 2020) - Dir. Kate Stryker & Lucas Millard

Sinopse: A family in remote eastern Nepal collects medicinal herbs, before making an annual 300-kilometer trek, partly on foot and partly by ramshackle bus, to lowland, urban markets. The extension of a road to and through their remote village is fitfully underway, promising less walking and perhaps a less arduous life in some distant future. Road engineers take bribes to avoid destroying homes, while laborers produce gravel — breaking individual stones by hand with hammers. The herb collectors plot to avoid shakedowns by police and bus operators as they miraculously make their way to market. This observant film is a deep dive into a Himalayan culture in a slow and chaotic, yet inexorable transition; it plays like a classic observational study rather than a polemic on the perils of modernization. Those perils can’t help being front-of-mind, however, producing a pervading sense of empathy.

► BLINDFOLD (Spain, 2019) - Dir. Daniel Fernández - Cañadas

Sinopse: When he was 8 years old, Jon Santacana was diagnosed with a degenerative disease that, little by little, left him without sight. Against all odds, and pushing his body to the limit, Jon has become one of history’s best skiers: 2 gold medals and 4 silver ones in the Paralympic Games. In his epic adventure to beat all competition records at over 120 km/h, with barely no sight, Miguel Galindo has accompanied him during his brilliant 17-year career. Miguel has been a faithful companion and has been his guide both on and off the slopes, accompanying him in this bromance that transcends myths of overcoming obstacles, sacrifice and sportsmanship, and talks about things that stop being visible but are the most important of all.

► CAMBOTA'S DREAM (Brasil, 2021) - Dir. Kênio Barbosa

Sinopse: Conhecida por suas grandes jazidas minerais, Barão de Cocais teve suas belezas escondidas atrás das atividades minerárias por um longo período. Porém, existem aqueles que nadam contra maré e buscam estabelecer o legado dos esportes de montanha na região.

► CHANGABANG AND THE MIRRORS OF A REPETITION (France, 2019) - Dir. Jean-Pierre Tauvron

Sinopse: In spite of its modest altitude (6,864 m), the summit of Changabang, in the Indian Himalaya, has seen few visitors but has already been the scene of far too many dramas. The three alpinists from the French High Mountain Military Group had only a very short weather window during which they could attempt to conquer this thousand meter vertical wall. Their adventure provides the opportunity to explore questions about what pushes humans to face the dangers and maledictions of a mountain.

► CONNECTION (Czech Republic, 2020) - Dir. Jan Zurek

Sinopse: Eight girls from France, The Czech Republic and Canada decide to rig half a kilometer long highline between two iconic rock towers in the Moab desert in Utah.

Al nacer no recibimos sólo libre albedrío sino también la responsabilidad de escuchar nuestras intuiciones. Según la definición antigua, la palabra mago significa sabio. Entonces si somos suficientemente valientes para seguir nuestra parte sabia, podemos convertirnos en magos.

He goes back in routes like “Rêve de papillon”, “La rose des sables” or even “La rose et le vampire” to guide us.

Beautiful scenery and hypnotic cinematography eject us from our daily lives into a world of air, earth and flight.

► THE STORY OF PLASTIC (USA, 2019) Dir.- Deia Scholsberg

Sinopse: THE STORY OF PLASTIC is a searing expose, uncovering the ugly truth behind plastic pollution and the false solution of plastic recycling. Different from every other plastic documentary you’ve seen, THE STORY OF PLASTIC presents a cohesive timeline of how we got to our current global plastic pollution crisis and how the oil and gas industry has successfully manipulated the narrative around it. From the extraction of fossil fuels and plastic disposal to the global resistance fighting back, THE STORY OF PLASTIC is a life changing film depicting one of the world's most pressing environmental issues.

► THE TEARS OF SHIVA (Spain, 2020) - Dir. Mikel Sarasola

Sinopse: Change is part and parcel of development and Nepal is undergoing a major transformation. Using water resources to generate energy is one of its pillars for the future, even if this means paying too high a price.
