Go Go Kosovo!

Synopsis

Rio 2016 was the first time athletes from the newly emergent nation of Kosovo were allowed to compete in the Olympic Games. This film captures the behind the scenes struggles, hard graft and grit of the humble Kosovo Olympic Team as they prepare to make history on the world stage.

GO GO KOSOVO! is about triumphing over adversity and never giving up, no matter what. It’s the ultimate underdog story about hope and fighting for what you believe in.

Spacewoman Spacewoman

Director: Hannah Berryman

Year: 2024

A landmark feature documentary about astronaut Eileen Collins, the first woman to pilot and command the Space Shuttle.<br /> Eileen’s incredible journey starts with her smalltown beginnings, sees her smash through many glass ceilings, and culminates in four dramatic space shuttle missions, the last being possibly the most dangerous and most important of them all.<br /> At its heart the film is the moving human drama of one family, where a mother’s extraordinary career takes us straight to the big philosophical question of what is the level of acceptable risk in human endeavour? <br /> This film celebrates Commander Collins’ trailblazing NASA career which opened the way for women to become spacecraft pilots and commanders, and proved a perfect riposte to a previous generation of male astronauts who thought there was no place for women to lead the way in space. <br /> Official Selection DOC NYC 2024 - World premiere<br /> Official Selection CPH:DOX 2025 - European premiere
