The peak of people's boredom certainly won't be flattening over the coming weeks, so we've compiled a list of some inspiring bouldering films to keep you sane during isolation. We'll be compiling lists for other disciplines of the sport, so watch this space. Tell us some of your favourites in the comments below and we may add some to the list.

You missed Between the Trees, my fave font film of all time:

In reply to UKC News:

Between the trees is on YouTube and is a masterclass in movement. Watching that on repeat while climbing on the homeboard

Just in case you missed my other thread here are some BMFF links to try. Most of them work and are excellent.

Sorry - not - sorry for this recommendation.  I watch this about once a year when I remember it and want a laugh.  

It's a bit childish I suppose but they do genuinely look like they're having so much fun

Stuck inside? I've been thinking this is a good opportunity to catch up on climbing films so have put together a ticklist. Anyone got any other recommendations? My personal preferences are more for the ones that have a historical, environmental or cultural perspective and are not so much adverts or fiction (was tempted not to include Valley Uprising for that reason but maybe it has its place now?). More interviews would be interesting if there are some good ones I've missed? Anyway here's my list. I've tried to include ligit links.
