DISCO FOX
Austria, France, Germany, Greenland, Italy, Switzerland 2023 – Director: Carmen Kirchweger – Original language: German – Subtitles: English – Length: 103 min.
Six young women defy gravity and open up new climbing routes on the steep inclines of Greenland’s mountains. They prepare fervently for their expedition and test their limits. “Somewhere in the middle of nowhere” takes on a different meaning when life hangs in the balance hundreds of metres above the ground – dependent on ropes, physical strength and decision-making skills. A film about strength and confronting danger. Morgane Remter
