In 2021 American climber Sean Bailey enjoyed an absolutely mind-blowing breakthrough season: the 25-year-old won a staggering three World Cups - two Lead and one Boulder demonstrating a balance and diversity the few command - before making the third ascent of Bibliographie 9b+ at Céüse in France. This fascinating film by Ben Neilson dives into Bailey's career as a pro climber, and how he uses both success and failure to fuel his climbing and push himself to new limits.
