THE
FEATURE
50 Minutes – The Sharp End, produced by Peter Mortimer,
Nick Rosen and Sender Films.
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.
