Kiss the Water
This beautiful, lyrical documentary is an unexpected and delicate treasure. A completely self-taught crafts woman, Megan Boyd creates fishing flies that are so celebrated that they are sought and prized by fishermen and collectors around the world. An unexpectedly compelling story that almost feels as though it belongs in an ancient folk tale.
Don’t Crack Under Pressure
An ‘extreme sports thrill ride’, this documentary drives you full-speed through the addictive pull of adrenaline seekers. This throws the spectacle of the extremest sports at you, daring you to look away.

My Octopus Teacher
This is a moving tale of the bonds available to be made in nature, if we take the time, respect and care to try.

Magnetic and mesmerising, a documentary to utterly intrigue and engage any man or beast.
The Trader
This short documentary opens a window into a world of a travelling trader in rural Georgia. In a landscape of poverty, the currency is potatoes. This is a documentary that truly explores the value of all things. Step through a portal that transports you to a tale that almost feels more fable and fiction, than the stark reality it is. All the while, it quietly shouts a truth to us all.
We Are The Champions
Meet the quirky and bizarre world of global competitive subcultures. This goes beyond the chaos of ‘competitive’ rounds of monopoly with family members at Christmas and delves into the intrigue of truly niche competitions and those that whole-heartedly commit to them. Completely compelling and weirdly fascinating, this is the docu-series you didn’t know you needed. Why do we do these wild and wonderful things? Because maybe, just maybe, we can win them.
