Synopsis
Beyond Limits: Into the ADHD Mind: Rising Above Failure
Recently diagnosed with ADHD, Simon Blair confronts self-doubt and past failures in the grueling Marathon des Sables. As the desert tests his mind and body, can he turn his diagnosis into an advantage or will it hold him back?
Icarus
While investigating the furtive world of illegal doping in sports, director Bryan Fogel connects with renegade Russian scientist Dr. Grigory Rodchenkov—a pillar of his country’s “anti-doping” program. Over dozens of Skype calls, urine samples, and badly administered hormone injections, Fogel and Rodchenkov grow closer despite shocking allegations that place Rodchenkov at the center of Russia’s state-sponsored Olympic doping program.
