While training for the Paris Olympics, elite climber Alannah Yip is suddenly diagnosed with alopecia universalis, forcing her to confront her identity beyond the competition world and embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery, healing, and redefinition.

Hello, Beautiful

After five expeditions over ten years, David Göttler stands atop the 8,125-metre-high Nanga Parbat. His success is hard-won and achieved unsupported unlike the full-service expeditions of commercial operators. Dodging the masses, he sets his sights on the difficult Schell Route. Fifty years after its first ascent, he reminds us that the art in modern high-altitude mountaineering is still alive and well. Photo credit: David Göttler

Nanga Parbat - Echoes of Sisyphus

Set against the stark beauty of Bishop, California, Immersion follows climber Ross Fulkerson through the focused, high-consequence world of highball bouldering.

Immersion

As part of their year of education through adventure, professional climber Leo Houlding shares his favourite place with his favourite people, his family, and 5.13:5.14-graded routes. From homeschooling at 600 metres to portaledge snowball fights, Jackson and Freya scale the Muir Wall on El Capitan, supported by mum, Jess and dad, Leo (with help from Xander Bianchi and Wilson Cutbirth).

Big Walls & Bedtime Stories

Kate Kelleghan, an American speed climber, dreams of completing Yosemite's legendary Triple Crown: El Capitan, Half Dome, and Mount Watkins—72 pitches and over 2,200 metres of climbing, a challenge previously completed only by men in under 24 hours. Determined to share this ambition with another woman, she teams up with Laura Pineau, a French big-wall climber known for her strong free-climbing skills, stepping into the world of speed climbing with total commitment and determination.
