Katherine’s Marathon

NORTH AMERICAN PREMIERE

Director: Nicolas Falquet
Origin: Switzerland
Duration: 26 minutes

The first Swiss climber to complete a 9A route (Cabane au Canada / August 2018), Katherine Choong, decides to repeat this performance in the Bernese Alps, with “Jungfrau Marathon”, a route also rated in 9A but with a radically different style. For Katherine, to repeat with such a performance represents much more than a sporting feat. Climbing is her school of life, a true philosophy.

No matter how long it takes to achieve this extraordinary new achievement, she transforms frustration into patience, failure into solution and once again, the dream into reality.
