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.
