The rules are simple in Senegalese wrestling: First man down, loses. The sport derives from ritual manhood trials and has developed into a national sport with packed stadiums and huge prizes. Today, the fight is supplemented with bare knuckle boxing but without any protection. The 22-year-old cattle herder Ndoff has been chosen to compete in an annual talent event in Dakar, and faces a possible breakthrough as a pro wrestler. LAAMB is the story of a sport filled with myths and extreme voodoo rituals, and a modern tale about fighting one’s way out of poverty.

A philosophical and poetic documentary about a female wingsuit base jumper. Wingsuit base jumping is an airborne extreme sport. The pilot takes off from high peaks above cloud level navigating back to earth close to treetops and past cliffs at speeds up to 240 kph. American Ellen Brennan is the fastest flying woman in the world and considered a true artist in the community. Residing amongst the mountains in Chamonix-Mont-Blanc, she spends her days and sometimes nights above the clouds looking for suitable cliffs from which she can soar. The wingsuit flyers refer to these cliffs as "exits".
Get on your bike. Ride down through Europe. Knock on random doors. Ask for shelter, food and water – and see what happens. That’s more or less the concept behind ‘A Journey and the Doors’. Peter Alsted cycles from Denmark to Turkey to explore the continent’s relationship with trust and hospitality. Awkwardness and tension hang thick in the air as he approaches his hosts in his cycling gear, knocking on doors and encountering both scepticism and language barriers. Along the way, he is forced to take detourr, stop for a snail crossing his path, seek atypical shelter from the weather, and ask himself if it’s all really possible because he’s a white, privileged man. A warm and wry film with its heart in the right place.
