Acerca de esta película

As the sport of climbing turns from a niche pursuit to mainstream media event, Marc-André Leclerc climbs alone, far from the limelight. On remote alpine faces, the free-spirited 23-year-old makes some of the boldest solo ascents in history. Yet, he draws scant attention. With no cameras, no rope, and no margin for error, Marc-André's approach is the essence of solo adventure. Intrigued by these quiet accomplishments, veteran filmmaker Peter Mortimer (The Dawn Wall) sets out to make a film about Marc-André. But the Canadian soloist is an elusive subject: nomadic and publicity shy, he doesn't own a phone or car, and is reluctant to let the film crew in on his pure vision of climbing. As Peter struggles to keep up, Marc-André's climbs grow bigger and more daring. Elite climbers are amazed by his accomplishments, while others worry that he is risking too much. Then, Marc-André embarks on a historic adventure in Patagonia that will redefine what is possible in solo climbing. The Alpinist is an intimate documentary of a visionary climber who follows the path of his own passion, despite the heaviest of possible consequences.

The guy died. He had a death wish from the beginning and he just kept pushing his luck. He should have been in therapy. Glory is one thing, but the drive to be "king of the mountain" is pathological if it kills you.

Great movie but the subtitles didn't fully work. Guessing they tried to use auto-subtitles but it failed on the all the non-English portions and several of the Squamish interviews (as of November 6 2021)

Well made documentary. A fascinating glimpse into the "climbing" sub culture. (Note: Deborah Elliott, what a completely petty and inconsiderate review. 2nd such type of review from you. Trash move.)
