Mountains on Stage winter edition returns to Bristol
Fancy a grand yet entirely risk-free mountaineering adventure? The biannual touring Mountains On Stage film festival is back in Bristol next month with its winter edition.
The programme comprises four new films in which daredevils risk their lives so you don’t have to.
From Shade to Light follows Charles Dubouloz on a six-day vertical odyssey tackling the iconic Rolling Stones, one of the hardest routes in the Mont-Blanc massif, solo and in winter.

Jérôme Tanon’s Freerider promises “humour, wonderful landscapes, soul searching, poetry and big exposed descents” as it joins Victor Delerue (twice Freeride World Tour winner) and Sam Anthamatten in Alaska.
Nina and Katie in Yosemite is billed as a 100% female production in which Nina Williams, a specialist in committed bouldering where falling is forbidden, ropes up with Katie Lambert to tackle one of the most difficult routes in Yosemite.
Finally, The Vagabonds of Logan charts an unusual approach to Mount Logan, the second highest peak in North America and one of the wildest mountains in the world. Four friends set out on foot and on skis, with 80kg per person to carry over hundreds of kilometers of moraines and glaciers.
Mountains on Stage is at the Odeon Cinema on Tuesday 6 December. Go here for tickets.
