PaulB Posted September 15, 2003 Share Posted September 15, 2003 This should interest the bouldering crowd: As posted by Zoran Vasic on Bivouac.com: "I would like to inform you about a unique premiere film show the Vancouver Intl Mountain Film Festival is co-producing with the BigUpProductions: "Pilgrimage" featuring the rock climbers Chris Sharma, Katie Brown and Nate Gold on their trip to Hampi, India. All climbers will be present for q&a and autographs. Pilgrimage When: Wednesday, October 1, 7pm Where: Centennial Theatre, 2300 Lonsdale Avenue, North Vancouver Tickets: $12 in advance, $14 at the door. Advanced tix at MEC, The Edge Climbing Centre and at both Cliffhanger gyms. Call (604) 984-4484 for info and tix. Join Chris Sharma on a bouldering pilgrimage to the sacred village of Hampi, in the south of India. Along with friends Katie Brown and Nate Gold, Sharma has come to explore the infinite possibilities of this place, where ancient Hindu temples nestle among thousands of unclimbed granite boulders. Sharma's legendary strength and natural approach to what he calls "the practice of climbing" yield spectacularly difficult and beautiful new boulder problems. In Hampi, where Saddhu holy-men spend years meditating in caves beneath the boulders, Chris pursues his own unbelievable form of meditation on the very same rocks. Katie Brown was one of the world's most famous and accomplished rockclimbers until she burnt out and quit climbing at the age of 19. Two years later, free from superstar expectations, she's begun to find joy in climbing once again. Like the Hindu pilgrims who flock to Hampi's temples, Brown has come to rediscover something sacred. Seen through the eyes of Sharma, Pilgrimage is a breakthrough climbing movie that combines world-class action with a rare and inspiring view into the mind of the greatest climber of our time.
