Magnetic Mountains is an independent documentary that follows the journey of Steve Wakeford - an award winning sports editor who abandoned life's 'traditional' paths to become a climber and alpinist. In October 2014, Steve fell 70 metres whilst climbing in the French Alps. It was a fall that resulted in him being temporarily left in a wheelchair.
The film seeks to answer some important questions: regardless of injury or trauma, why are we drawn to the mountains in the first place? Is risk an essential part of what we do? Check out the Kickstarter campaign: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mennapritchard/magnetic-mountains
