MENDI BILUZIA
2020, Spain, 70min
Director: Alex Txikon
Produced and directed by Alex Txikon himself, and so it is he who narrates the summit he crowned on 26 February 2016 on Nanga Parbat (8,125m, Karakorum, Asia). A feat never before achieved in the middle of winter. A very personal audio-visual project that the mountaineer from Bizkaia gave conceived and gave birth to during the 2020 confinement caused by theCovid-19 pandemic, together with a book bearing the same title, in which he describes in more detail the essence and harshness of a winter expedition, and the importance of reaching the summit, but above all of reaching base camp, because as he says, "the summit is achieved by returning to base camp with the rest of the team".
