Leading the Albatross World Sales slate, The Right Whale—Tales of Resilience and Hope showcases right whales’ behavior and the threats they’re facing.

The Right Whale is a beautifully crafted, emotional story about one of the world’s rarest whales, told on a truly global scale,” says Anne Olzmann, managing director. “It takes viewers from the Southern Hemisphere—where right whales are recovering—to the urgent struggle for survival faced by their Northern cousins. With intimate access to scientists, powerful visuals and moments never captured on film before, this documentary connects science with heart. It’s a story of resilience, discovery and hope—perfect for international audiences looking for meaningful, cinematic storytelling with worldwide relevance.”

Flight of Legends—The Quest to Conquer the Atlantic centers on the race to accomplish the first direct flight between New York and Paris. “With the 100th anniversary of Charles Lindbergh’s legendary flight coming up in 2027, this story is more relevant than ever. What makes it unique is its fresh perspective: it’s not just about Lindbergh, but also the forgotten heroes, rivalries, and near-tragedies that led up to that moment. Visually rich and emotionally gripping, it’s a cinematic blend of history, ambition and human spirit—perfect for international buyers looking for powerful storytelling with a timely hook.”

Amnesia—When the Brain Suddenly Goes on Strike is also on offer. The doc “masterfully blends personal storytelling with scientific exploration. By using a firsthand experience of transient global amnesia as an entry point, the film takes viewers on a fascinating journey into memory research. It’s an engaging exploration of the human brain that speaks to both the intrigue and fears surrounding memory loss.”

The busy June market period, “is a key moment to strengthen international partnerships and spotlight our most compelling new titles,” Olzmann adds. “As we head into NATPE Budapest and Sunny Side of the Doc, we’re focused on connecting powerful, globally resonant stories with buyers seeking high-end factual programming.”
