Jailed for life in 2011 for killing her husband, Sally Challen was convicted on the unanimous decision of the jury. The result provoked little surprise among her friends and family, yet evidence later revealed that Challen was the victim of coercive control from her husband, who would manage her social life and spending. With fewer than 10% of appeals ever quashing a conviction, this documentary is a compelling case for the need for greater nuance in the law and its reporting.

The Last First: Winter K2

The race to conquer mountaineering's last great trophy, K2 in winter, has claimed several lives. It has brought to light deep divisions within contemporary mountaineering: the pressure of commercialization, the damaging effects of social media, and latent tensions between marginalized climbers and those who have always profited from the sport's glory. The documentary filmmaker tells a complex, poignant, and moving story that deciphers the extreme mountaineering industry and the evolution of its culture. The story focuses on a 2021 expedition: Icelandic climbers John Snorri Sigurjónsson and Pakistani father-and-son duo Muhammad Ali and Sajid Sadpara set out to conquer K2 in winter. They quickly find themselves sharing this perilous ascent with influencers and their film crews, clients of commercial expeditions, and Nims, a renowned Nepalese mountaineer, and his team of Sherpas.
