Elsewhere
ELSEWHERE follows four athletes on a self-propelled freeride expedition in the Alps. Camping and skiing deep in high alpine terrain, they enter a quiet, surreal space — close in distance, yet far from everyday life. This self-documented film captures their immersive mountain experience.

Fifty - Fifty
Tying in with a climbing partner means more than just sending the crux together. For renowned alpinists Ines Papert and Sarah Huenekin, the peak of their aspirations comes as they both climb past the age of 50 — pushing harder while learning more about each other, as well as themselves.
Starring: Sarah Hueniken and Ines Papert
