Film Lineup
Airtime
Alex Clapin, Griffen Elsley
Airtime explores the intersection of winter sports, flight and freedom. Blending skiing, snowboarding, speedflying and paragliding, this film captures the beauty of the Sea to Sky region of British Columbia, and the spirit of athletes pushing creative and physical boundaries.
Lester
Paul Collins
“The faster you go the less that you see. Why don’t you slow down and cruise like me?” At 83 years old, Lester still lives his passions as an artist, surfer and craftsman. The film celebrates an appreciation for strolling, reading, making music and painting — the antithesis of the mainstream American ethos to go faster and get more. See the world anew as you walk with Lester through an inspiringly and intentionally slow-paced life.
