 NS OF THE GOLDEN VALLEY
DESCRIPTION:WOP MENDI FILM AWARD 2025
 CATHERINE DESTIVELLE
 Friday decem
 ber 8 – 19:45 Euskalduna Bilbao
 
 Climber\, mountaineer\, writer\, ed
 itor and conference speaker. Catherine Destivelle probably never imagined 
 where her first steps climbing the boulders of Fontainebleau\, where her p
 arents took her to play as a child\, would lead her. At 16\, she was alrea
 dy climbing in the Verdon. Her victory in the first world climbing champio
 nship in Bardonechia (1985) propelled her into the professional world. The
 n came the leap into mountaineering: the first solo female winter ascent o
 f the north face of the Eiger\, the first absolute repeat of the Bonatti r
 oute on the north face of the Matterhorn\, the Trango Tower\, the ascent o
 f the south-west face of Shisha Pangma... all of which forged her path. In
  2020 she was awarded the Piolet d'Or for her career.
 She founded the pu
 blishing house Les éditions du Mont-Blanc with the aim of transforming th
 e mountain itself into an educational tool. The books she publishes reveal
  incredible mountaineering stories and share a love of the mountains. “M
 y goal is to build a bridge between cultural history\, sporting heritage a
 nd the ecological and scientific concerns of the times we live in”\, she
  says. Her publishing team is deliberately made up entirely of women.

 ALDIA
 Afganistango Bamiyan mendiko herri urrutikoetan eskiatzeko zaletas
 una piztu da. Mugimendu horren bihotzean Alishah Farhang dago\, behinola e
 ski alpinoan parte hartzen zuen lehen afganistandarra izateko ametsaz Negu
 ko Olinpiar Jokoetarako hautagai izan zena. Hark gidatuta\, egurrezko eski
 ekin eta bigarren eskuko ekipoarekin hornituta\, etsaituta dauden herrieta
 ko gazteek bat egiten dute parekorik gabeko mendiko eskiko lehiaketa batea
 n. Batasun eta itxaropen katalizatzaile indartsua bihurtzen da ekitaldia. 
 Baina herrialdearen gainbehera harrigarriaren ostean\, Alishah-k eta gazte
 ek elur pistetan ikasitako irakaspenak baliatu beharko dituzte errefuxiatu
  gisa bizirauteko.
