The Sharp End is a film about the climbers who risk everything
to do the world’s most dangerous and committing climbs. Run
out traditional routes, scary highball boulder problems, ice-covered
alpine walls and all-or-nothing free-solo ascents are all part of
the game. The Sharp End follows Lisa Rands, Tommy Caldwell,
Matt Segal, Steph Davis, Alex Honnold, Heidi Wirtz, Renan Ozturk,
Vera Schulte-Pelkum, and many other leading rock athletes to stunning
locales across the globe: the Italian Alps, the sandstone spires
of the Czech Republic, Yosemite Valley, the Utah Desert, and the
Colorado Rockies.
