More info: http://www.banffcentre.ca/mountainculture/tour/radicalreels/more.asp Film DescriptionsEphemereSwitzerland, 2007, 6 minutes Directed and Produced by Produced by Nicolas Falquet, Loris Falquet The challenge: film and edit a five-minute film by following five athletes performing their outdoor sports during five days. Action, humour, lifestyle - the script is totally free. In Ephemere, the athletes encounter a mysterious woman who can control time.
Directed and Produced by Adrian Matthew Glasenapp Focus: Kayaking Light in Liquid features expeditions and adventures on rivers and creeks in Colorado, Idaho and Mexico. This kayak collage pushes the creative edge in the whitewater film genre and focuses on the process of travel, the paddlers themselves and the world around us just as much as it does on running waterfalls and creeks.
Directed and Produced by Todd Jones. Dirk Collins, Steve Jones, Corey Gavitt Focus: Skiing/Snowbording This is the story of the extraordinary season of 2007 as seen through the eyes of world-class skiers and snowboarders. Shot entirely on 16mm and high-def, it is a testament to the terrain and conditions that only exist in the western hemisphere. The winter of 2007 was feast or famine; "Lost and Found" documents the feast.
Directed by Dominique Janiszewski Focus: Speedflying On the Eiger and the Jungfrau in Switzerland, Soul Flyers Loïc Jean-Albert, Julian Boulle and Ueli Gegenschatz perform the closest ever flight to the ground in formation. Directed by Don Hampton, Aaron Chase Focus: Mountain Biking The Cut is an international collection of the most progressive and creative mountain-bike freeriders and downhill racers in the world. Ride shotgun with the boys and follow their inaugural season as they jet-set the globe, all for the sake of having fun on their bikes.
Directed and Produced by Shawn Boye Focus: Bouldering Join Dylan Smith and Carl-Ola Boström on a tour of Sweden’s best bouldering. "Swedish Meatballs" features classic lines and first ascents, as Dylan and Kalle spend a month on the road meeting up with the boulderers who have shaped the Swedish scene.
Directed and Produced by Darrell Miller Focus: Paragliding/Skiing Our approach to obtaining aerial ski footage was a dangerous one: tandem paraglide over skiers as they drop into gnarly lines and exposed couloirs in the Jackson Hole backcountry. The result is environmentally friendly aerial footage, at an affordable price. And the big daddy of them all: Matt Combs’ soon-to-be world-famous shot of a 300-foot ski-BASE jump high in the Tetons.
Directed and Produced by Will Gadd Focus: Climbing This film follows Will Gadd and his climbing partners as they put up a new route on "the Yam", as the massive rock wall in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains is affectionately called. In Will's words, it is a "sporty sport route": eight pitches following the big roofs and vastly overhanging sections of the wall that have not been climbed before.
