Profound Freeride Adventure in the Andes<\/strong><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
What drives people to go to the mountains? Five protagonists from Switzerland, Austria, Bolivia, and Peru push their limits as they tackle various 6,000-meter-high steep faces in the Andes on skis. By being the first to descend the 6,074-meter-high “Chachacomani” in Bolivia, the mountaineers also take on significant risks. The invisible force of altitude poses a challenging hurdle to overcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Sariri” explores the fascination that mountains exert on people, as well as the spiritual significance these towering clouds of stone, snow, and ice can hold. The film consciously includes the local population by having two of the main characters come from the Andes, sharing their perspectives on the mountains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sariri is a word from the Aymara culture\/language in Bolivia and Peru. The word has several meanings, one of which refers to someone who goes into the mountains and travels without a clear destination\u2014and in doing so, inspires others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bottom line:<\/strong> A beautiful film with a gentle pace, featuring magnificent images, strong portraits of the protagonists, and much food for thought. Directed by Paul Schweller, who at just 23 years already has an impressive body of work, including the award-winning film “metanoia.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
