“This film records an historic first ascent of the world’s hardest traditional climb,” says jury member Bill Noble. “It succeeds in putting you in the place of the climber, capturing both the excitement of the attempt and his dedication to the sport.” Canada, 2006, 12 minutes Produced by Ivan Hughes Directed by Sonnie Trotter and Paul Bride |
