The Asgard Project is an astonishing film that follow's top climber Leo Houlding's ambitious project to make a first free ascent on the north tower of the incredible Mt Asgard on Baffin Island deep in the Arctic.
Leo teams up with fellow big wall climbing god, Stanley Leary (USA), where the duo hope to make a wingsuit descent from the summit. Arriving late in the season the trip soon begins to go wrong, after a stunning arrival skydiving over Mt Asgard, conditions turn against the team where just reaching the base of the climb becomes an enduring epic. The film produced by multi-award winner, Alastair Lee, is an all out spectacular documenting a truly cutting edge adventure with all its twists, turns, blood, sweat and tears. Prior to the Baffin expedition the excitement builds with training trips to Riglos in Spain, Brento in Italy and El Cap in Yosemite; Leo will need to be at the top of his game to face his biggest challenge yet.
