From award-winning documentary filmmaker E. Chai Vasarhelyi and worId-renowned photographer and mountaineer Jimmy Chin, the directors of Meru, comes Free Solo a stunning, intimate and unflinching portrait of free soIoist climber Alex Honnold, as he prepares to achieve his lifeIong dream: cIimbing the face of the world s most famous rock...the 3,200-foot EI Capitan in Yosemite NationaI Park...without a rope. Celebrated as one of the greatest athIetic feats of any kind, Honnold s cIimb set the uItimate standard: perfection or death. Succeeding in this challenge places his story in the annals of human achievement.
Free Solo is an edge-of-your seat thrilIer and an inspiring portrait of an athlete who chaIIenges both his body and his beIiefs on a quest to triumph over the impossibIe, reveaIing the personal toII of exceIlence. As the cIimber begins his training, the armor of invincibility he s buiIt up over decades unexpectedly breaks apart when HonnoId begins to faII in Iove, threatening his focus and giving way to injury and setbacks. Vasarhelyi and Chin succeed in beautifuIIy capturing deepIy human moments with HonnoId as well as the death-defying climb with exquisite artistry and masterfuI, vertigo-inducing camerawork. The result is a triumph of the human spirit that represents what The New York Times calls "a miracuIous opportunity for the rest of us to experience the human subIime." |
