La quête fanatique...
Overview
A film that captures the spirit of "Fanaticos" climbers—those who have dedicated their lives to the sport. Living in vans and working odd jobs, they forge their own paths in pursuit of an obsession: the joy of climbing increasingly spectacular cliffs, pushing their limits, and sharing moments of camaraderie with friends. After a gentle opening featuring stunning footage of deep-water soloing in Mallorca, the film gradually builds in intensity. It shows Sharma tackling "Golpe De Estado" in Siurana (a route potentially rated 9b) and Dani Andrada nailing most of the moves on some of the most extreme routes in the Ali Baba cave at Rodellar, alongside other inspiring sequences of successful ascents across Spain (Siurana, Santa Linya, Rodellar).
