Overview
Climbing Never Die follows climbing journalist Matt Groom as he journeys deep into war-torn Ukraine to discover a community held together by climbing and patriotism, but indelibly changed by war. Young Ukrainian climbers train in the relative safety of climbing gyms, sometimes without heat or electricity, as air raid sirens ring out across the city. The film is a portrait of resilience and national pride amid hardship. And just like the country of Ukraine itself, these athletes show no signs of backing down.
