Spielplatz der Extreme
Franz Hinterbrandner (2015)
French Provence is home to one of the most spectacular and exceptional places in Europe: the Verdon Gorge. For decades, it has been an Eldorado for extreme sports enthusiasts who pursue their passion on the steep walls, the wild river and the airy heights. Stefan Glowacz and Christian Schlesener, two professional alpinists from Bavaria, have been trying their luck on one of the most difficult multi-rope routes in the gorge for over ten years and have failed countless times, yet they keep coming back. Like the kayakers, slackliners and paragliders. All athletes are united by a passion for adventure. But the shared moments and the experience of nature will also shape their memories of the gorge.Franz Hinterbrandner, Max Reichel
