Silence

About This Movie

So, 'Silence' dives deep into the psyche of climbing, you know? It’s not just about the physical feat of ascending a 9c route; it’s the mental preparation, the solitude, and the weight of history that hangs over each move. Bernardo Giménez captures the atmosphere with a raw, unfiltered lens, letting you feel the tension and anticipation of that day in September 2017. The pacing is deliberate, allowing you to savor the moments leading up to Ondra's ascent—like a slow burn that culminates in a stunning release. The visuals are striking, almost poetic in how they frame the rock face and the climber's struggle against it. It’s a meditative look at obsession, achievement, and the thin line between triumph and failure.
