Pierre BagleyThe remarkable true story of how one woman changed the world of sports forever. When Catana Starks (Academy-Award Nominee Taraji P. Henson) became the first African-American woman to coach an all-men's team at the collegiate level she expected it to be tough but she had no idea just how challenging it would be. With no scholarships to offer and only one US student willing to join the team, she reached out across the globe to assemble a ragtag group of golfers including a clean cut kid from Australia, a wanna-be rapper from Korea and a street kid from London (Tom Felton). With sheer grit, determination and some unusual training tactics she guided this culture club of misfits to an all-time record championship season. Along the way she taught them no matter how rough the start, with the right aim and drive, anyone can triumph against overwhelming odds.

The body of the movie showcases some of the most progressive big and small mountain skiing filmed to date, and setting the stage for the end of the season when all four skiers unite for the mother of all heliskiing trips.

Jean Claude GuiterNo driver can claim more loyalty or devotion from fans of Formula One than Ayrton Senna. His passion, commitment and sheer intensity helped to elevate F1 from elite sport to the level of a calling. The way he drove a qualifying lap showed a hint of the divine – he himself described his performance as being near transcendent, an out-of-body experience. For his supporters across the world his driving was on a plane above his contemporaries, and his reserved and aloof character only added to the mystique. This programme was the first to try to delve behind the public persona and get to grips with Ayrton the man, rather than Senna as the media portrayed him. Racing is in My Blood delves into the Brazilian’s background to disentangle the various strands that combined to weave the remarkable talent behind the man often described as the “greatest racing driver ever.” This is an incredibly intimate and fascinating portrayal of a man who redefined motorsport for a generation and continu

Kenton Gilchrist & Jonathan HunwickEvery February, four dozen athletes are invited to Alaska to undertake a journey which will challenge their bodies and minds, their wills to succeed, and their wills to live. The Iditarod Trail Invitational is the worlds longest, toughest and most remote ultra marathon, challenging competitors to journey 1000 miles across the Alaskan tundra on bike, foot, or ski. More people summit Everest in an afternoon than have made it from Anchorage to Nome on a bicycle. But this year twenty-six racers will attempt the full 1000 miles of the Iditarod Trail. The fastest time recorded is 12 days. The longest is more than 30. It’s the unknowns that bring these elite athletes here year after year in search of purpose and excitement, but it’s those same unknowns that make this one of the most dangerous races on Earth. How willing are you to lose your toes, or your hands, or someone you love. That’s the consequence of not being prepared on the Iditarod Trail.
