The choice of the festival

Alberto Garcia, like many of his compatriots, dreams of climbing the Naranjo de Bulnes in Asturias, a 2,510m limestone peak at the centre of the Picos de Europa. The challenge is that Alberto has suffered from multiple sclerosis since he was 17. Climbing a few metres requires a considerable effort for him. So how can he take on the 600m wall? This film takes us on an exploration of unknown places and shows how willpower can liberate us from obstacles.
