Rayu

In Rayu, climbers Sasha DiGiulian and Matilda Söderlund join trad specialist Brette Harrington to take on the 2,000-foot alpine rock route in Spain's Picos de Europa. The route, graded at a difficult 5.14, has not been repeated since its first ascent in 2020 by the Basque Pou brothers and Kiko Cerdá.

The film highlights the climbers' struggles as they contend with unpredictable weather, loose rock, and the delicate balance between individual aspirations and teamwork. Living on the wall for days, the team faces both physical exhaustion and psychological challenges, pushing their limits in pursuit of success.

As a documentary, Rayu appeals to both climbing enthusiasts and those interested in extreme sports. Collectors may appreciate the film's unique insights into the climbing community and its portrayal of a significant challenge in the sport.
