 KAZUYA HIRAIDE Y KENRO NAKAJIMA: TRIBUTE
 Friday December
  6  – 19:30 Euskalduna - Auditorio
 In July 2024\, a chapter on K2 cam
 e to an end. It was time to come to terms with the loss of Kazuya Hiraide 
 and Kenro Nakajima on the western ridge of the Karakorum colossus.  ‘Go
 ra Mendi!’ “¡Arriba el Mendi!” exclaimed Kazuya Hiraide\, full of e
 nthusiasm\, when he presented his fantasy\, his project\, to us here in Bi
 lbao a year ago. As the roulette wheel would have it\, the worst of the nu
 mber came up\, and an unparalleled career in the great mountains of Asia a
 nd the world was cutshort.  It was the second time that Kazuya visited th
 e Mendi. He shone at the international premiere of the film “Rope” and
  was a “Ternua Friend”. He is one of us\, and that is how he transmitt
 ed it too.  Kazuya and Kenro formed a team that we felt remarkably close 
 to\, both as a festival\, as an International Alliance\, and above all\, a
 s people.
