A short documentary about Jon Wilson, who lost his left leg to cancer but still became an accomplished mountain biker. It received much acclaim and numerous prizes at mountain film festivals from around the world in 2017. The slow-motion capture of Wilson¡¯s biking is truly inspirational. Why does he continue to challenge himself? Wilson answers, ¡°If I don¡¯t ride a bike, I will lose my mind.¡± (KIM Hyung-seok)

    Perkins' interest in film started during his days as a fly-fishing and bird-hunting guide in Montana. He carried his camera around with him and grew intrigued with trying to capture the moments in the natural world that were out of his control.
