Teaser Trailer for Rock Climbing Doc 'The Dawn Wall' Playing at SXSW

“I just have this fire in me…” Red Bull Media has launched the first teaser trailer for an adventure sports documentary titled The Dawn Wall, profiling hardcore adventure junkies and experienced rock climbers Tommy Caldwell and Kevin Jorgeson, specifically their attempt to climb the “Dawn Wall” – a seemingly impossible 3,000 foot rock face in Yosemite National Park, California. This doc is premiering at the SXSW Film Festival later this month in the Documentary Spotlight category, which means it’s more than another sports doc. Some of you may remember the media frenzy this climb caused in the summer of 2015, because Caldwell and Jorgeson spent weeks living on the rock face trying to complete the climb. Making it even more of a challenge, Jorgeson lost index finger in an accident in Kyrgyzstan, but he continued to climb and get even stronger, attempting this challenge as a way to prove he can still achieve anything. It looks crazy cool. ›››
