Poacha’s Journal
The essence of freeriding in its purest form. With no script and no rules, this short film follows four young riders as they explore uncharted territories on their bikes.
The film masterfully blends grainy 16mm film with crisp digital cinematography, creating a vivid and artistic portrayal of the unbridled joy, freedom, and pure stoke that only two wheels can deliver.

Vautour
Following their impressive “Fond of Font” project, which saw them complete a remarkable 100 x 7A bouldering challenge, the dynamic climbing duo of Seb Berthe and Hugo Parmentier are embarking on an ambitious new endeavor.
Their latest dream is to tackle a monumental endurance climbing challenge: ascending five major long routes in the breathtaking Verdon Gorge, all within a single 24-hour period.

Showing Up
In June 2024, an adventure-seeking couple set out to hike the entire length of the European Alps, on a route called ‘Via Alpina’ – a distance of 2000 kilometers across 145,000 meters in elevation. That’s the equivalent of climbing Mount Everest…17 times!

Peripheral
“Peripheral” invites audiences on a journey alongside Lucy, a spirited individual navigating a pivotal and deeply personal transformation. The film intimately portrays her struggle with the gradual deterioration of her sight, a challenge that profoundly impacts her existence.
Yet, rather than succumbing to this adversity, Lucy embraces her profound love for the outdoors, transforming it into a conduit for self-discovery and resilience.
