Andy Parkin: A life In Adaptation
A documentary about Andy Parkin, an artist and one of the world’s leading solo climbers. Andy is regarded as one of the world’s finest alpine climbers. In 1984, he suffered a near fatal climbing accident in the Alps. This documentary captures Andy’s journey into slow rehabilitation, which involved painting and sculpting the mountains that had so very nearly claimed his life and has subsequently caused him to become known as much for his inspirational artwork, as his return to climbing.
A meditative journey of resilience and creative transformation. Watch an elite climber rebuild his life through art after a near-fatal accident, turning trauma into beauty. The kind of story that reminds you what the human spirit is capable of.
