Alp-Con Cinematour 2021

Three film blocks bring pure outdoor fun to the big screen

by PowderGuide 10/15/2021
After a turbulent 2020, the Alp-Con Cinema Tour is back on the road in Germany and Austria as usual, bringing spectacular films with it. As in previous years, the tour will show various stories from a wide range of sports. The tour is divided into three different film blocks so that personal passion is not neglected: BIKE, MOUNTAIN and SNOW.

The film program is a successful mix of top international productions, mostly original feature films, as well as works by local filmmakers. But there are also one or two online clips that deserve more than just a "click". The focus of the tour is on the experiences, messages and characters of the films, because they inspire and motivate.

SNOW film block

The Snow film block has two films in store for you this time. These include Roman Rohrmoser with his short film Timeout. The film is about the story of a "dropout" who, like Roman, loves nature. Another highlight is Stoke the Fire by TGR, a 60-minute film spectacle. This is about the development of athletes in skiing and the joy that manifests itself from this process. Stoke means different things to different people, depending on where they are in their development. The pursuit of development and progression, stokes the fire ("stokes the fire").

Bike Film Block

With two long films, this time the Bike Film Block offers pure enjoyment for all bike fans. With The Old World, Tillmann Brothers Entertainment have not only managed to close the gap between BMX and mountain biking, but have also managed to combine a classic action sports film with a feature film. A Biker's Ballad by Matchstick Productions is about the various disciplines of biking in the cradle of mountain biking.

Mountain Film Block

Can you imagine climbing a breakwater on the coast of Scotland? Some of you would probably scream "Of course" right now, but what would it be like if you had to climb blind? That is exactly what Jesse Dufton has set out to do. He wants to be the first blind person to attempt the lead climb on the legendary Old Man of Hoy. You can see whether he succeeds in doing so in the award-winning documentary Climbing Blind. The second film takes us to Yosemite National Park, more precisely to the famous El Capitan. A daring project is to take place there: Two climbers with an age difference of more than 30 years want to conquer El Capitan in their very own way. The Mountain film block was already shown in September
