Bouldering is a form of rock climbing dependent purely on one¡¯s own strength, balance, and willpower, with only climbing boots and a chalk bag as equipment. It is popular among young climbers but is usually limited to safe rocks 3 to 5 meters high. Not so for Nina Williams. Her sight is always set above that of others, and to her, a boulder reaches 15 meters, where one single misstep can lead to death. Viewers of this film are mesmerized during every second of Williams¡¯ perilous movements as she reaches for the high boulder that doesn¡¯t allow for a single mistake. (LEE Young-jun)
