At this year's Kendal Mountain Festival, five BMC TV productions made it through selection to be shown on the big screen. Find out how to watch them all at home.

This year, BMC TV had five films in the festivel. Here’s a rundown of what we’ve produced.

Verdon

Supported by Marmot

This is our 2014 blockbuster. This summer, we sent Sheffield strong man Steve McClure, dark horse Neil Mawson and film magicians Rich Heap and Ben Pritchard down into the depths of the Verdon Gorge in France. Twelve hours later, they emerged, battered, boiling hot and in sore need of a beer, but with this film in the can.

Where Walking Took Me

Where can walking take me? Jen Randal turns the camera on herself, to take a look at just where walking can take you in life. An honest, and honestly charming three-minute film that will have you reaching for your boots.

Running Wild

Four British women take on the challenge of the famous Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc (UTMB) races in Chamonix, France. This short film by Seventwenty Productions follows Nikki Barnard, Milly Voice, Katy Dartford and Kaz Williams as they tackle the highs, and lows, of ultradistance running.

Enabled

With Wild Country

We teamed up with Wild Country and Paul Diffley of Hot Aches, to turn the camera on the paraclimbing competition scene. Examining the growth of paraclimbing competitions in the UK, this film challenges perceptions of disability and examines the benefits of competitive climbing for disabled climbers.

Project Mina

Whilst this isn’t a BMC TV production, it was sponsored by BMC TV and features (or, rather, stars) our very own 8c-cranking Vice President: Mina Leslie-Wujastyk. Project Mina follows Mina through her 2013 Bouldering World Cup Season, as well as climbing on real rock in the Peak District and Rocklands, South Africa. But it's more than just a climbing film. This is a film about dedication, struggle, determination and finding your way. Yes there is crushing both indoors and out, but more than that there are the moments between the competitions and top outs that no other climbing film has explored before. Prepare to laugh, prepare to cry, and prepare to be psyched out of your mind.

In the Frame

In 2011 Joe Beaumont fell 40 metres from a crag whilst climbing in the Lake District. He suffered life-threatening injuries down one side of his body and lay fighting for his life. Since his accident Joe has become the first person ever to complete a triathlon in an external fixator, taken his first steps back on rock and cycled 600 miles from Holme Fen, the lowest point in the UK, to Fort William to scale britain's tallest mountain. From dark days in intensive care to the summit of Ben Nevis, 'In the Frame' is a tale of rehabilitation, determination and re-discovery against all odds.

Patience

Supported by Mountain Equipment

Patience is about injury, illness, and coming back from them stronger than ever. Featuring no-nonsense alpine climber Emily Ward, who has suffered every climbing injury known to man: from an ice-axe in the face to a shattered talus while bouldering, she tells us of her own unique experiences and how she keeps adventuring while not only recovering from injury, but while fighting her life-long battle with cancer. This is 5 minutes of film magic from Jen Randall.
