From the scheduled films the documentary
Sali waza should be a big hit, because it is about last years big wall ascents in Madagascar by Ondra Benes and Tomas Sobotka together with the Austrian Champion Harry Berger who tragically died recently (
Madagascar).
The other tip for climbing films would be
Facing Obsession, what is German movie about the extreme climbing of Stefan Glowacz and Robert Jasper in Patagonia on Cerro Murallon (
Facing Obsession).
Also a French film
Sahara vertical, that is about climb via wall in Ahhagar massive in Algeria (

And yet another intresting film from Slovak

Slovaks ascents of the year 2006).
A Specificaly sport climbing and bouldering film
Robin des blocs (France) whereSteve McClure climbes the route 8c+, may be a lot of people have already seen on free DVD by Petzl, anyway it is available even on internet: (
