25 years outside.
25 years of EOFT.
Behind every EOFT face there's a story, a wild idea, or a dream that's just a little too big. Something that really pushes you.
For us, that means: finding exciting and moving outdoor sports and adventure films for you every year — and asking ourselves: what comes next?
Our stories unfold in the most remote corners of the world. Our characters are just as real as the challenges they face.
If we show it, it happened.

Behind all these numbers are real people, a whole lot of heart, and a whole lot of work. And if you ask us — it's the best job in the world.
What truly moves us — and why?
Our CEO Joachim "Helli" Hellinger shares his perspective on how filmmaking and programming have evolved, what EOFT stands for, and why authenticity is more valuable today than ever before.
It's not just the adventurers in our films who are always on the move — so are we. Because EOFT is more than a night at the movies: it's a community of people who share the same restlessness, the same curiosity, the same pull toward something bigger. Wherever we show up — we want you to feel at home.
"When you're on the road a lot, it feels a little like a rockstar life."
In this interview with Daniel Przyhodnik, the EOFT project manager, you’ll learn more about what it’s like to organize a film tour like the EOFT and how things have changed over the years.
For 25 years, the bonds behind the scenes have been every bit as strong as the ones on screen. But not everything has stayed the same — and that's a good thing.
We've noticed that adventure has become more personal. Absolute records and national firsts have moved into the background. External limits have turned inward. And over the years, the world of adventure has grown more diverse. We want our programs to reflect that — and we're on the right track, but far from the finish line.
Adventure has many faces.
#realpeople
25 years of EOFT. 25 years of setting off, turning back, pushing on, weighing risks, and making decisions. And one question that keeps coming back: Can I do this? If that sounds familiar — maybe the people up on that big screen aren't so different from you after all. They're just one step ahead.

That's exactly what we dreamed of 25 years ago.
