Shot over a week in the French ski resort, Les Arcs, Ride & Fly introduces us to a group of three speed-riders (François Bon, Jérôme Baud and Maxence Cavalade) and their adventures combining off-piste skiing and paragliding. It's a week full of high-altitude rides, evenings relaxing with friends and testing their skills against other extreme athletes, such as Fred Fugen and Vincent Reffet, also both speed-riders, and Thibaud Duchosal, a professional off-piste skier. Thibaud never uses a parachute so Jérôme and François decide to design a system to take him up in the air with them and release him over previously inaccessible slopes.

Roughly chronological, from 3/96 to 11/96, with a coda in spring of 1997: inside compounds of Aum Shinrikyo, a Buddhist sect led by Shoko Asahara. (Members confessed to a murderous sarin attack in the Tokyo subway in 1995.) We see what they eat, where they sleep, and how they respond to media scrutiny, on-going trials, the shrinking of their fortunes, and the criticism of society.

Araki faces extreme hostility from the Japanese public, who find it hard to believe that most followers of the cult had no idea of the attacks and even harder to understand why these followers remain devoted to the religion, if not the violence.
