Every year, WAFT’s unique films are carefully chosen to show women achieving their personally adventurous goals. This year’s program highlights the resilience and creativity of individuals navigating the challenges of both the outer world and their own inner landscapes. It’s a program that brings together incredible stories of courage, adventure, and self-discovery. These films represent the spirit of perseverance and the power of women in the outdoors to inspire, entertain, and spark important conversations.
This year’s WAFT lineup includes a diverse range of films that explore the physical, emotional, and personal journeys of athletes and adventurers.
1. “Run Antarctica: Beyond Limits” (31:40) | Filmmaker: Lissie Mary Geyer
An Australian ultramarathon runner and pain scientist, Donna Urquhart, sets out to break the world record for the longest run in a polar region.
With no prior experience in Antarctica, no roadmap, and no guarantees, she faces the ultimate test of mind and body in Earth’s harshest environment. As Donna battles unimaginable challenges, she discovers something far greater than a record.
2. “Trail to Bayanihan” (22:04) | Filmmaker: Cat Aeppel
“Trail to Bayanihan” follows Sam’s journey as she pedals through diverse landscapes, celebrating the joy of biking and the power of community. Along the way, she discovers how a bike can bridge distances and forge deep human connections. As she explores breathtaking terrains and bonds with local riders, including the passionate Baguio crew, the film highlights the Filipino biking community’s role in shaping her journey. Grounded in her search for cultural roots, “Trail to Bayanihan” ultimately reveals the wider family Sam finds through biking, transforming her quest for heritage into a celebration of shared humanity.
3. “Beauty in a Fall” (26:48) | Filmmaker: Nat Segal
In her toughest adventure yet, Canadian mountain guide Julianna Howatt seeks to embrace her identity as a trans woman following a fierce struggle with CPTSD.
Join Julianna on her journey to self-discovery in the face of an industry that struggles to accept folks who currently fall into the margins of mountain culture. Visiting the mountain-scapes that were her livelihood, she confronts her past experiences and her journey’s cost.
4. “Beyond the Known” (11:37) | Filmmaker: Sami Sauri
What does adventure mean? For Sami, a multisport athlete and filmmaker, it’s movement and shared experience.
In collaboration with Assos and Mammut, Sami leads a cycling expedition across Turkey with four women. Strangers from different backgrounds, united by their love for riding. Neza from Rwanda dreams of becoming a coach. Melina juggles a full-time role at Mammut with a passion for gravel and road cycling. Denisa is quiet yet fearless, most at home in nature. Lena is a climber and photographer who captures the soul of the wild.
Together they ride through raw landscapes and remote villages, facing obstacles, falls, and unexpected moments that turn strangers into a team. More than a sporting challenge, this journey becomes a story of connection, resilience, and rediscovery. It’s proof that the best adventures are the ones we share.
5. “#MoCrazyStrong” (18:00) | Filmmaker: Jamie MoCrazy and Mark Locki
When professional skier Jamie MoCrazy suffered a serious traumatic brain injury following an accident at World Tour Finals 2015, her life was flipped upside down.

Originally opening in 1966 as a three-room library within the Airport Annex building, the Clark County Library moved in 1967 to a storefront. In 1971, the library moved again to its current location using deeded land from the County and with money awarded by the Max C. Fleishman Foundation. The building went on to have two remodels: one completed in 1986, and the second completed in 1994, which resulted in the three-story, 120,000-square-foot building it is today. This redesign notably included a 399-seat theater and an 80-seat black box theater/dance studio. The Library District also added the Best Buy Teen Tech Center, which provides a place for teens to explore and master new technologies and digital skills.
