On September 21 and 22, 2020, the Mountains on Stage mountaineering film festival will stop in the Swiss cities of Zurich and Bern.
It should have been a summer film festival. But the corona pandemic threw the Mountains on Stage through the bill. The organizers are all the more delighted that the festival can still take place. Mountains on Stage will stop at Arthouse Le Paris Zurich and cineBubenberg Bern on September 21 and 22, 2020.
Tickets for the events can be found on the Mountains on Stage website.

The beautiful rocks of Ha Long Bay attract all rock climbers in search of exploration and deep water soloing. Without a rope, daredevils climb 20 meters before falling into the water. Kyria Condie, a climber who is just discovering this discipline, has to overcome her fears with the help of her mentor Tim Emmet, a pioneer in this type of climbing.
The goal: the "Lightning Crack", a magnificent line in the heart of the bay ... An aesthetic and spectacular film!

We embark on a 17-day journey in full autonomy in the heart of the Andes Cordillera. Six French kayakers prepare to grab their paddles to brave the stormy waters of the Rio Apurimac. An adventure full of twists and turns, for better or for worse. We experience first-hand how six friends start a journey on their own, where it is impossible to turn back.

Together with the two paragliders Damien Lacaze and Antoine Girard, we go on a 1 km long bivouac flight in the middle of the Himalayas, up to the Karakoram Mountains, which are considered the most beautiful mountains in the world ... A crazy high-altitude tour, led by an unbeatable duo! This tour should be the prelude to the attempt to climb the Spantik (500 m) with the help of paragliders in two days. But is this innovative project even feasible?
