Screenings:

10am EXPEDITION INISPIRATION + WOMEN WITH ALTITUDE

EXPEDITION INSPIRATION: Five men and woman who have had their lives affected by breast cancer climb 13,000 foot Mount Borah in Idaho, as part of Expedition Inspiration, a non-profit organization that takes breast cancer survivors up mountains after treatment. The climbs are a way for the survivors to reclaim their bodies from the deadly disease, and for family members to honor the memory of those lost to breast cancer.

WOMEN WITH ALTITUDE: Seven women set out from San Francisco to climb three high-altitude peaks in the Bolivian Andes. But they are not just seven women, they are survivors and activists on domestic violence. Beset by severe winter storms, rockfall, and altitude sickness, braving the failure and fatalities of other teams on the mountain, the Women With Altitude go for the final 20,000-ft summit drawing on the strength of will of local Bolivian activists who courageously face uphill battles of their own.
