THE FILMS

CITADEL – the 2015 film from Alastair Lee
The stunning new mountain film for 2015 from multi-award winner Alastair Lee and the Posing Productions crew; 'Citadel'. Featuring hardcore UK alpinists Matt Helliker and Jon Bracey as they attempt the stunning NW ridge of the remote peak 'The Citadel' deep in the Neacola range, Alaska. A truly amazing spectacle. reveals alpine climbing like never before. The stage is set for why two accomplished mountaineers must still seek out new lines risking everything in unchartered territory where the odds are stacked heavily against them. We take a front seat ride and are with Matt and Jon every step of the way through all the hardships and struggles, hopes and disappointments. What unfolds is a classic narrative arc where success is snatched from the jaws of defeat.

OPERATION MOFFAT- New from Jen Randal & Claire Carter
Operation Moffat takes inspiration and wit from the colourful climbing life of Britain's first female mountain guide, Gwen Moffat. Grappling with her preference for mountains over people, adventure over security, wilderness over tick lists, writer Claire Carter climbs, runs, scrambles and swims her way through Gwen's most cherished British landscapes. Including candid interviews with 91 year old Gwen, previously unseen archive material and unashamedly real action sequences, this film captures Gwen's infectious excitement for a life constantly seeking something strange or beautiful around the next bend.

WILD ATLANTIC
A charming and inspirational montage by Belfast based climbing photographer Craig Hiller. Features exploratory action of many wild first ascents and adventures on Ireland's extraordinary west coast including the incredible Holy Jesus wall.
