Girl Climber

Jon Glassberg / United States, Austria / 2025 / 83 min

Professional climber Emily Harrington has summited some of the highest peaks in the world, but her biggest challenge still lies ahead. Attempting to climb El Capitan in just 24 hours, she pushes herself to the edge. On one of Yosemite National Park’s most dangerous routes, a near-fatal fall forces her to confront her fears and limits, turning the climb into a test of ambition and resilience.This gripping survival story follows a woman who refuses to be defined by a male-dominated world and instead sets her own standards.
