Our Judges say:

No-nonsense, very well produced kite-skiing film that gets straight into magnificant views of Pakistan mountains from the start. Highy enjoyable, and one of the best films of its type - buzzy, snow-related adventuring - in this year's crop. I recommend that you book early, any session with this film will sell out.

Paul Hodgson Music Judge

Join five paragliding pilots as they venture into Pakistan's Karakoram mountains. By using their paragliders and the almost mystical uplifts found in the air, they're able to ski and climb in some of the world's most breathtaking landscapes. In the skies, they find an unparalleled sense of freedom - and along the way meet local pilots, who are equally excited to experience the magic of the air above. Pushing higher than ever before, the pilots find themselves on the edge of their limits.
