The Mountains on Stage festival returns with four new adventure and exploration films for its winter edition. Here’s that programme in full, with official blurb:

Path to Everest
The legendary runner Kilian Jornet faces the highest mountain on earth. Path to Everest is an adventure with ups and downs, deep sadness and beautiful joy. Directors: Josep Serra Mateu and Sébastien Montaz-Rosset. Length: 80 minutes (Subtitled original version)

Evolution of Dreams
Taking part in Olympic Games, becoming Freeride World Champion, skiing the Eiger – Eva Walkner and Jackie Paaso are high achievers. But their dreams occasionally clash with the reality and hazards that life brings. An intense movie that will make you wish you could get your skis back on straight after. Directors: Carina Brunnauer, Eva Walkner and Jackie Paaso. Length: 26 minutes (Subtitled original version)

Zabardast
Zabardast is the travel diary of a five week, self-sufficient, expedition in the heart of Pakistan at over 5,000 metres in altitude with Léo Taillefer, Thomas Delfino, Zak Mills, Hélias Millerioux and Yannick Graziani. It’s a project that combines mountaineering and freeride skiing, but also a wonderful human adventure in an astonishing landscape. Director: Jérôme Tanon. Length: 50 minutes (Subtitled original version)

Weightless
Is Jean-Baptiste Chandelier a man or a bird? Not easy to say as this paraglider plays with gravity – his humour and weightlessness seen over a Brazilian beach, a ski slope or an Azores volcano. His wing twists and his creativity have no limits. Director: Jean-Baptiste Chandelier. Length: 5 minutes (Subtitled original version)
