Adam Ondra: Pushing the Limit

Adam Ondra ranks among the best sport climbers in the world, demonstrating breathtaking hand-feet coordination whilst scaling natural rocks and artificial walls. Shot over the course of three years, this documentary follows Adam Ondra as he gets ready for the Summer Olympic Games in Tokyo. The multi world champion spends most of his days training and has neither the time nor the disposition to stop for long conversations. Instead, his ripped muscles and girlfriend Iva do all the talking for him. While Adam climbs up to soaring heights, wins races, and faces increasing pressure from the media and his sponsors, Iva has sacrificed her own climbing career to keep him off the ground. This film of intimate human intricacies and spectacular natural formations explores the limits of physical prowess and partner proximity. (Ji.hlava International Documentary Film Festival)
