Mama Picchu (19 minutes; 2012) Dir: Ryan Van Duzer
Single mother of four Donna Jobert seeks her first adventure in 30 years. Heart issues and physical fitness are the obstacles standing between her and the summit of Machu Picchu. With two grown sons by her side, hereʼs a story of overcoming self-doubt and recapturing a zest for life, whether she makes the summit or not.

Outside the Box (16 minutes; 2012) Stefanie Brockhaus
When it comes to bouldering, Anna Stöhr and Juliane Wurm are hard to beat, but when they first try out crack climbing at the Castleton Tower, they can learn a few tricks from Lynn Hill. At Castleton Tower, two different generations of climbers meet each other. On the one side, there is Lynn, who has been placing gear before Juliane and Anna were even born. On the other side, Anna and Juliane are two of the worldʼs strongest boulderers who mostly climb indoors and have no experience traditional climbing. After learning to hand jam, Lynn takes the girls on their first trad climb.

Ready To Fly (78 minutes; 2012) William A. Kerig
Since childhood, as a wide-eyed 7-year-old ski jumper with a dream of Olympic flight, Lindsey Van has been an outsider in a manʼs world. Thrust into a fight thatʼs far bigger than her dreams, larger than ski jumping or even sport, Lindsey and her ad hoc womenʼs ski jumping family battle entrenched attitudes and seemingly omnipotent gatekeepers to prove that women deserve to compete at the highest level: in the Winter Olympics. This powerful true story tells a tale of sacrifice and determination, of pluck and tragedy, as a very special group of unlikely heroes triumphs over massive obstacles to achieve a dream and change the world for other women in the process.
