Awards

Premio Ritter Sport - Emozione in Montagna

Ed. 2024

The film succeeds in presenting the enthusiasm and spirit of adventure guiding Edu Marin, assisted by his brother Alex and his father Novato, in the free ascent of the Eternal Flame, on the southern spur of the “Nameless tower” in Pakistan. It is a story in which the mountaineering challenges and unfavourable weather conditions highlight a family relationship based on trust, respect and love. The amazing footage of one of the most spectacular mountain ranges in the world also contributes to making the film exciting and compelling.
