WIND LINES, 13min,. Spain
Directed by Janire Etxabe
As soon as I tried vertical dance, I knew I wanted to keep doing this. At home, in the mountains, flying, hanging. In a incessant search for the indefinable feeling.

YOUR EVERYDAY HEROES OF COSTA RICA, 25min., USA

Directed by Hernán Salcedo

Your Everyday Heroes traveled to Costa Rica and searched for inspirational everyday people who are changing the world. Jeremy, Tracey, Vernon and Che are clearly all examples of what it takes to be a Hero, and we’re proud to share their stories with you.

Get to know producer Albert H. Crane:

One of our film crews traveled to Costa Rica to film Jeremy Levine at Wild Sun Rescue of an episode of season two. Once they arrived, they kept meeting amazing people who were involved with their own non-profits, so we decided to feature all of them in a longer documentary in an effort to draw attention to their causes. To make this film? This production has many legs… Each hero ended up being featured in their own episode, then we decided to combine the 3 animal rescues and recut it from scratch, so to get this far has taken just about a year. That is why you see Che in the after credits, as he was the 4th hero we filmed in Costa Rica, but didn’t hit the theme of this story.
