BT-07. Valley Uprising

USA, Feature Documentary, 2014, 98 min

Over the last five decades, the grand granite walls of Half Dome and El Capitan in Yosemite National Park have seen the rise of a unique culture of rock monkeys and cragsmen on their flanks: free-spirited dirt bags and stoners with a lifestyle of dumpster-diving performing unfathomable feats of bravery. This fast-paced film, through dizzying high-camera work, pounding music and a brilliant narrative, covers the last half century of struggle against the laws of gravity?and the laws of the USA. Yosemite’s history will become your history, and you will never forget the absolute joy in this film.

Directed by Peter Mortimer and Nick Rosen
