- Description
- Every year around Christmas time, in the deepest of winter, the most skilled and extreme mountaineers of the country meet in the Tien Shan mountain range at the Free Korea Peak in Kyrgyzstan. For years, they have begun at the same time, “working” upward on a rock face which, due to its technical climbing difficulties and hostile conditions, can rarely be found elsewhere. The team is suspended high up on the wall in their tents and enjoys the small luxury of listening to modern music. This film tries to show the allegorical relationship between “life” on the wall and life in a city.
