Allein
Franz Walter (2019)
On the occasion of his 50th birthday, Robert Jasper gives himself a very particular present – an expedition for him alone. The climber and mountain guide is a minimalist. He knows how to master critical situations on the mountain in a relaxed and concentrated way. On the eastern coast of Greenland, he sets off from the village Kulusuk in a sea kayak. After 12 days of paddling and carrying heavy loads, he arrives at his basecamp on the foot of the Molar Spire. He starts to climb the almost 500-meter high rock face solo. In addition to the climbing difficulties and the enormous strain, he also has to struggle with the heavy burden of extreme solitude.Franz Walter, Frank Kretschmann, Robert Jasper

Documentary / Portrait
Die Jaspers
Andreas Köstler (2017)
The Jaspers, are almost a normal family. The Jaspers are Robert and Daniela, their children Stephan and Amelie and the Tibetan Terrier Denga. They would go through everyday life as a normal family if it weren't for the past and the present. If it weren't for these abysses. Robert Jasper is an extreme mountaineer, still one of the best in the world. In his film 'Die Jaspers - eine Familie am Abgrund', SWR filmmaker Andreas Köstler paints a portrait of a family for whom the unknown on the mountain has a very special charm, without their blue-eyed, life-threatening adventures.- 2017

Génération Dry
Gaëtan Raymond (2016)
Dry tooling, ice climbing on suspended structures, is an activity that has been expanding in recent years, almost everywhere in France. From the experienced mountain climber to the occasional indoor climber, everyone wants to try. The film will show the various facets of the activity, its development, its practices and practitioners as well as its 'applications', thanks to the testimony of several major actors in this discipline. The focus will also be on climate-related issues. These last seasons are increasingly poor in ice due to the winter heat.Gaëtan Raymond, Pierre Chauffour

Eisliebe - Die Jaspers
Jurgen Eichinger (1999)
Mixed climbing, that is on ice and rocks, is one of the most adventurous techniques of climbing and it holds a strong attraction for Robert Jasper, one of the best mountaineers in the world. He has done some of the most difficult climbs in the Alps, the fastest climb of Cerro Torre in Patagonia, sports climbs up to grade 10 and expeditions to various mountains in the world. Daniela, his companion on the mountains and in life, seems to be at her ease in the most difficult climbs and in the ice gorges. In winter 1997/98 Robert and his wife managed, in Wallis, to complete a mixed climb of four lenghts of rope called the ' Flying Circus', one of the most difficult routes in the world and so severe that the Jaspers could claim a new grade of difficultty.- 1999

Svalbard - špice Spitzbergna
Boštjan Mašera (2007)
All three Slovenian expeditions to Spitzbergen (in 2005, 2006, and 2007) had to face logistical difficulties. Violent storms and temperatures in the region of minus 50 degree Celsius are not uncommon in the Polar Circle. The steep walls of the largest island of Svalbard - Spitzbergen - call for a completely different climbing approach from that required in the Alps, the Andes, or other mountain ranges around the world. And don't forget to watch out for polar bears!- 2007

The making of The Alps
Betsy Comstock (2007)

There are interviews with producers, the director, editor, and the principles of the film who share stories of the making of the film. Featuring some of the most spectacular giant screen imagery ever seen – captured by intrepid helicopter and mountaineering crews – the making of The Alps was a vastly ambitious undertaking that involved a team made up of climbing luminaries, hardy mountain guides and award-winning nature cinematographers.- 2007
