Kimshung - the mountain of destiny
For nearly ten years, François Cazzanelli has been returning to the same mountain: Kimshung, a hidden peak in the Langtang Valley. It all began in 2015 when his friend Giampaolo Corona invited him to Nepal; however, the expedition quickly turned into a rescue mission following a devastating earthquake.

South6
In South6, the alpinists Silvia Loreggian and Aurélia Lanoe link six iconic south faces across the Alps by travelling between them by bicycle, carrying their gear and committing to a low-impact approach. But the project is not just about climbing: it’s a full journey built on friendship, shared effort, and everything that happens in between—long rides, changing landscapes, unexpected meetings, and the simple rhythm of moving through the mountains day after day.

Everest- A boy who dared
Christopher Harris was a mischievous baby, always climbing out of his cot. At four he started climbing rocks and soon afterwards, mountains. At the age of thirteen, he had already climbed Australia's, New Zealand's, Africa's and Europe's highest mountains. When he had just turned fifteen, he climbed South America's Mount Aconcagua. The summit is just 1,800 meters lower than Everest and he wondered, could he climb those extra meters? Could he at fifteen, climb Everest?

EXPRESSION
Set in the skiing mecca of Interior British Columbia, Canada, EXPRESSION follows five freeride skiers as they push beyond competition to explore skiing as a form of self-expression. Through movement and creativity, each line, turn, and moment on the mountain becomes a reflection of who they are.
