Event Details

A global love letter to nature, Super Nature is an immersive exploration of our world today, filmed exclusively on the original home movie format, Super 8. Shot by people all over the world, the universal and the local combine in this intimate gaze on nature, with a transcendent score and sound design, and voices in many
tongues.

Led by filmmaker Ed Sayers, 40 Super 8 collaborators in 25 countries across 5 continents, create a wondrous and diverse tapestry of footage of the natural world. From white rhinos to weedy sea dragons, flamingos to snails, Super Nature reveals the deep connection we all have to nature, one that modern life so often prevents us from noticing. Embracing all we have, and all we have to lose, Super Nature proposes a new way of seeing, as it takes us on a spellbinding journey of discovery and togetherness with our fellow dwellers on earth, both human and non-human.

Films

Le Moulin des Artistes

A home for free spirits.

Some people make a living from their craft. Others can’t live without it. In a 16th century mill in the Chamonix valley, Peter and Anati run Le Moulin des Artistes: a ski workshop, art space, and gathering place for like-minded free spirits. Whether it’s in Peter’s handmade wooden skis or Anati’s paintings and music, Le Moulin des Artistes shows us what happens when you devote your life to creative expression. How it can bring purpose, build lasting community, and even help overcome disaster.

Simple as a Turn

Dedicated to snowboarding’s elemental act.

For Nicholas Wolken, turning is more than snowboarding’s foundation. It’s the simplest expression of what riding is all about. And from going pro to shaping snowboards made for turns, he’s spent much of his life chasing the deep feelings that come with carving on snow. Sure, the act of turning might be simple. But when mind, body, and board collide in a perfect toeside, simple has never felt more supernatural.

DIG

Ryland Bell has always been a dark horse. Born in Alaska and based year-round in Haines, the notoriously hardcore snowboarder and commercial fisherman spends his winters quietly hiking world-class spines from his backyard. In April of 2025, he headed deep into his home mountains in search of the biggest line of his life. Watch the trailer for "DIG " down below.
