Before meeting her base-jumper husband Glenn Singleman, Heather Swan had never done anything particularly exciting. However before they met, she had promised herself that she would attempt to establish a new world record by climbing a Himalayan mountain and then wingsuiting back down. The film retraces Heather’s physical and mental journey to Meru Peak, in the Indian region of Garwhal. She trained for six years and proved that determination can turn a complete beginner into a successful athlete.

Glenn Singleman graduated from the University of Sydney, continuing his post-graduate studies at the University of Minnesota. He is also a doctor, meaning he is much in demand for expeditions. He is an expert climber and this allows him to film at high altitude without difficulty. He participated at the TrentoFilmfestival for the first time in 1989 with the film "The Loneliest Mountain", made with Chris Hilton.
