Luke Stoltman leaves behind a stable career in the oil and gas industry to guide his younger brother Tom through the brutal world of Strongman. Tom is a genetic phenomenon, built for the sport, but his greatest battle has always been internal, navigating life as an autistic man in a high-pressure, hyper-masculine arena.
When their mother and primary carer, Sheila Stoltman, passes away, Luke steps into the role she left behind, becoming mentor, protector and father figure, bound by a promise to always look after Tom. As Tom rises rapidly through the ranks, silencing critics and defying expectations, Luke quietly wrestles with his own doubts, sacrifices and fading ambitions.
Tom pushes toward fulfilling the promise he made to his mother, “Mum, I will win World’s Strongest Man”, while Luke searches for redemption of his own. It comes when he shocks the sport by winning Europe’s Strongest Man, proving he still belongs among the elite.
The journey leads to the ultimate showdown: two brothers, head-to-head, at the pinnacle of Strongman.
At its heart, this is not just a story about strength, but about family, sacrifice, and the unbreakable bond between brothers.

It is said that Penrhos cottage was built in one night. According to Welsh folklore, if you could build a house overnight on common land, with smoke rising from the chimney by dawn, the place would be yours to keep. 200 years later in rural Pembrokeshire, the house stands still in time. Beneath its thatched roof lived Rachel and Maria, two sisters who spent their days crafting a life that defied societal rules written for women. Quietly radical, the pair were celebrated by the whole community.
A fairytale documentary told through the eyes of the children who once visited. Recounting memories of Penrhos and the legacy of its last owners, the past flickers back to life.

George Best was one of the greatest footballers who ever lived. But he was so much more than that. Although the football pitch was his arena, Best was essentially a pop star - young, stylish, strikingly beautiful, possessed of a creative confidence that bordered on arrogance, and worshipped by young men and women alike. Like The Beatles and The Rolling Stones.
This film is simultaneously a celebration of a genius and an exploration of the demons that brought him down. We all know how these biopics traditionally work: in this case a talented but innocent young man from the backstreets of a divided but still pre-Troubles Belfast, becomes a star. But his time at the top is agonizingly short: a family history of alcoholism doesn’t help, in those pre-drug Sixties everyone wanted to buy him a drink, and before he was thirty, he was a washed up drunk.
But we’re taking the Benjamin Button approach here. No-one wants to go out on a downer, with the end card telling us how many hundreds of thousands lined the streets of his home town to bid him farewell, along with the millions watching on live television.
