Foresight

Foresight – From High Altitude to Intense Life. Speed Mountaineer Benedikt Böhm is a specialist in skimo speed records. His latest challenge takes him to Putha Hiunchuli (7246 meters in the Dhaulagiri mountain range in Nepal), where he will try to complete the ascent from base camp and descent in less than 8 hours. Being an athlete you are used to taking risks but he admits that he is looking for a new balance between his hobby and his life, in which fatherhood takes on a primary importance.

My take

A visceral meditation on ambition and mortality. Watch a world-class mountaineer chase an impossible 8-hour speed record on a 7,246-meter peak—not for glory, but to reckon with what matters most. This is sport as philosophy.
