O Alpinista
Self
Marc-André Leclerc escala sozinho, longe dos holofotes. Em penhascos remotos, o canadense de alma livre de 23 anos faz uma das escaladas solo mais ousadas da história. Ainda assim, atrai pouca atenção. Sem câmeras, sem corda e sem margem para erro, a abordagem de Leclerc é a essência da aventura solo. Nômade e avesso à publicidade, ele não tem telefone nem carro, e reluta em deixar que uma equipe registre sua visão pura do alpinismo. O cinegrafista veterano Peter Mortimer (THE DAWN WALL) começa a fazer um filme sobre Leclerc, mas não consegue acompanhar seu esquivo protagonista. Então, Leclerc embarca numa aventura histórica na Patagônia, que redefinirá o que é possível em escalada solo.
This Mountain Life
Self
A daughter and her 60-year-old mother embark on a 6 month, 2,300-kilometre ski trek through British Columbia’s rugged terrain.
Higher Ground
The cinematography is breathtaking but the unifying theme is lifestyle, the common bond that unites climbers around the globe. It's a year in the life. What motivates these athletes to court danger? Higher Ground celebrates mountain culture through the eyes of world-class climbers. The film focuses on these climbers' drive to explore, their passion for the mountains and the climbing lifestyle. From big wall first ascents in Zion, Utah and winter alpine ascents in the Canadian Rockies to big wall ski descents in coastal British Columbia, Higher Ground spotlights some of the continent's most inaccessible terrain and the people who thrive there. A lens into their boundary-breaking passion illustrates what mountain culture is: an obsession. Featuring: Mike Anderson, John Chilton, Audrey Gariepy, Phil Gruber, Shawn Huisman, Sean Isaac, Lisa Korthals, Guy Lacelle, Rob Owens, Ines Papert, Rob Pizem, Andrew Querner, Scott Semple, and Josh Wharton.
