The Dawn Wall DVD

The Dawn Wall is the definitive film on the climb that captured headlines and
ignited imaginations worldwide. Tommy Caldwell and Kevin Jorgeson ascend the
hardest big wall of all time: a 19 day ascent of The Dawn Wall, on the 3,000
foot vertical face of El Capitan, in Yosemite National Park.

The film travels deeper than the climb, digging into the history of the
climbers and painting an intimate portrait of Caldwell’s harrowing life
experiences that culminated in a single-minded drive to complete this
impossible climb. The Dawn Wall is a heart-warming and inspiring movie that
celebrates perseverance, camaraderie, and the universal spirit of dreaming
big, and never giving up.

In January 2015, American rock climbers Tommy Caldwell and Kevin Jorgeson
captivated the world with their effort to climb The Dawn Wall, a seemingly
impossible 3,000-foot rock face in Yosemite National Park, California.

The pair lived on the sheer vertical cliff for weeks, igniting a frenzy of
global media attention.

But for Tommy Caldwell, The Dawn Wall was much more than just a climb. It was
the culmination of a lifetime defined by overcoming obstacles. At the age of
22, the climbing prodigy was taken hostage by rebels in Kyrgyzstan. Shortly
after, he lost his index finger in an accident but resolved to come back
stronger. When his marriage fell apart, he escaped the pain by fixating on the
extraordinary goal of free climbing The Dawn Wall.

Blurring the line between dedication and obsession, Caldwell and his partner
Jorgeson spend six years meticulously plotting and practicing their route. On
the final attempt, with the world watching, Caldwell is faced with a moment of
truth. Should he abandon his partner to fulfill his ultimate dream, or risk
his own success for the sake of their friendship?
