A movie about Nina Caprez and To Bolt or Not to Be
In connection with the film, Nina writes the following lines: “Sharing an outstanding adventure is somehow easy. You take a picture from a big wall, from an icy mountain, or from a simple outdoor shot while bivying. Everyone can relate to that, our eyes and brain can make the connection between the picture we see and to the emotion it brings up: adventure, rad! But how can we communicate about a more personal emotion on a more run-of-the-mill climbing experience? That's the challenge I wanted to tackle by filming my way on the historical route 'To Bolt or Not to Be', American's first 14.a, located in Smith Rocks. "
