The Undamaged

The Balkans cradles Europe's last wild rivers and supports abundant wildlife and healthy, intact ecosystems. These rivers are "The Undamaged" – clean, pristine, and undammed. With over 2,700 small and large hydro power plants planned or under construction in the Balkans, corruption and greed are destroying the last free-flowing rivers of Europe. Follow the Balkan Rivers Tour, a rowdy crew of whitewater kayakers, filmers, photographers and friends who decided to stand up for the rivers, travelling from Slovenia to Albania for 36 days, kayaking 23 rivers in 6 countries to protest the dams and show the world the secret wild rivers of the Balkans. The film honours everyday people and local activists who are fighting to defend rivers and aims to spread the word of the plight of these rivers, showing a new style of nature conservation that is fun, energetic and effective.

For the Love

For the Love was created by brothers Brendan and Todd Wells, documenting their endless adventure around the globe in search of whitewater and waterfalls. As expedition kayakers at heart, the brothers and their many friends explore rivers around the world that have never been descended before in a kayak and where few humans have ever set foot near. The film highlights the struggles and rewards of discovering these new rivers, as well as features elite paddlers in the sport pushing the limits of gravity and the human body. From hacking through the dense Ecuadorian jungle with machetes to strapping kayaks to the bottom of small Alaskan bush planes, these kayakers do what others wouldn't to explore the most difficult and remote whitewater in the world.

The Official Review of UEFA Euro 2004

This is the official review of the UEFA 2004 European Championships and what a tournament it has been. From the very first game there was high drama with the hosts suffering a surprise defeat to Greece. In Group B England looked to have defeated the French until the final minutes when the magic feet of Zidane scored not once but twice. Group C went down to the wire, Sweden and Denmark needed to draw 2-2 for both teams to make the Quarter Finals and put Italy out of the competition. It couldn't possibly happen... but it did. Group D was expected to be hotly contested and it produced arguably the best game of the tournament when the Czech Republic came back from two goals down to defeat the Dutch 3-2.
