JUMPERS

LOGLINE

Jumpers follows rising equestrian Skylar Wireman as she pursues the 2028 Olympics in a sport dominated by wealth and long defined by the same elite, predominantly male riders who have held Olympic team positions for decades. Without major financial backing, Skylar has built her career as a catch rider, relying on a deep connection with the horses she rides.

TEAM BIOs

Naomi Segwick is a filmmaker and former competitive show jumper excited to be working on a film that is so close to her heart. Jumpers reflects both her personal history in the sport and her interest in making films about compelling individuals.
