(13 mins) Till Middelhauve, NZ, World Premiere.
The remarkable story behind a unique community-driven climbing experience on New Zealand’s Takaka Hill. What began as an ambitious idea evolved, through determination, ingenuity, and countless hours of manual labour, into a fully-fledged via ferrata carved into rugged limestone cliffs.
Through intimate interviews and striking visuals, the film follows the people who brought the project to life, revealing not only the technical challenges of building a vertical pathway but also the spirit of adventure and generosity that underpins it. At its heart, The Wire Climb is a story about passion, resilience, and creating access to wild places for others to enjoy.
