Mountainfilm - Indomitable Spirit

Start your Saturday with stories of people who keep going. Indomitable Spirit is a playlist of character-driven documentary shorts from Mountainfilm.

Run time: About 1 hour 50 minutes, including a 15-minute intermission. Doors open at 9:30 am.

Films in this playlist:

• Fifty-Fifty (10 min): Alpinists Ines Papert and Sarah Hueniken climb past the age of 50, pushing harder and learning more about each other.
• The Meloneers (22 min): In Rocky Ford, Colorado, a high school wrestling coach helps kids understand what they can and can’t control in their lives.
• Talliyah (4 min): Indian Relay Racing is fast, dangerous, and rarely includes women. Talliyah Timentwa (Colville) is one of the best.

Intermission

• La Tierra del Valor (23 min): The singer NEZZA sings the national anthem in Spanish at Dodger Stadium, a declaration of belonging during the ICE raids in Los Angeles.
• Rock Faced It All (17 min): A year after her Parkinson’s diagnosis, Teresa Bennett is scaling 60-foot walls and turning her battle with the disease into strength.
• Pressure Drop: Kai Jones (6 min): Kai Jones pushes the limits of freeride skiing, part of a new generation redefining big mountain riding.

Content notes: Fifty-Fifty and The Meloneers contain adult language. La Tierra del Valor touches on potentially heavy subject matter (ICE detention).

Make it a daycation: come for the 10:30 am playlist, then explore Saugatuck/Douglas before Big Green World at 2:00 pm and The Medley at 7:30 pm.
