Life Is Climbing(HKAFF2024)
Life is climbing for blind paraclimbing legend Koichiro Kobayashi, who won gold at four consecutive Paraclimbing World Championships. And it wouldn’t have been possible without his sight guide Naoya Suzuki, whose voice serves as eyes and encouragement for Kobayashi. Their partnership is one of complete trust and invaluable friendship. Director Sokichi Nakahara’s inspiring debut feature documents the rock climbing duo’s dream to reach the top of the iconic sandstone Fisher Towers in Utah. On this adventure enlivened by old friends and new heights, Kobayashi challenges the climb of a lifetime, with the camera closely following every exhilarating step and slip of the way.
