BROAD PEAK. Hastapenetara itzulera 28’ Euskadi / Basque Country 2011 Zuzendaria/Director: Josu Bereziartua Ekoizlea/Producer: Josu Bereziartua I longed to return to the beginning. I felt the need to leave twenty years of media-centred expeditions to one side, in order to enjoy again the mountains and my friends. I will embark on the journey to Karakorum with the aim of feeling like I did in my alpinist beginnings: free.
CAMINHO TEIXEIRA 14’ Brasil 2009 Zuzendaria/Director: Alexandre Diniz Ekoizlea/Producer: 9D Produçoes In April 1912, five Brazilian young men decided to climb the Finger of God.

This fact transformed the Finger of God into the national mountaineering symbol.

CONFERENCE: "Big Walls" - SILVO KARO The climbing of great walls changed radically in the 80s and 90s thanks to the impetus of an extraordinary generation of talented Slovenian alpinists, amongst which Silvo Karo stands out. His incredible solo climbs and winter ascents in the Slovenian Alps made him into a legend among Slovenian climbers, but his international reputation rose to an all time high with his openings in Patagonia, Pakistan, Greenland and the U.S.A.. His alpine style ascent of the west face of the Bagirathi III is the zenith of a great trajectory in which the following stand out: the first ascent of the south face of the Cerro Torre, the one day ascent of the Eternal Flame route in the Torre sin Nombre of the Trango and other great Patagonian openings. Silvo Karo is Honorary Member of the British Alpine Club and has been awarded the Slovenian Order of Merit.
