SUMMARY:Girl Climber at The Appalachian Theatre of the High Country
DESCRIPTION:“Girl Climber” Director and Filmmaker\, Jon Glassberg will be present to introduce his film and participate in a short panel on the convergence of climbing\, recreation\, conservation\, and community. Jon lived\, and climbed\, in Boone from 2002 – 2009 and graduated with two degrees from AppState. \nJon Glassberg is an American documentary and adventure filmmaker. He works as a director\, cinematographer\, and producer. Starting from his roots as a professional climber\, Jon has ventured globally to capture historical moments in outdoor sports with the industry’s biggest names. His production company\, Louder Than 11\, documents authentic stories in extreme environments around the world. \nGirl Climber (2025) – Professional climber Emily Harrington has summited Everest\, 8000-meter peaks\, and dominated the competition circuit but\, her greatest challenge extends beyond the physical. To cement her legacy in the male dominated world of elite rock climbing\, she sets her sights on a career-defining 24-hour ascent of Yosemite’s El Capitan. \nCaught between the pursuit of personal ambition and the ticking biological clock of life\, a near-fatal fall forces Emily to reckon with what she’s willing to risk. Equal parts gripping survival story and intimate portrait\, Girl Climber isn’t just about breaking records\, it’s about breaking barriers. Amongst Yosemite’s legendary boy’s club\, Emily isn’t proving she is the best *Girl Climber– she’s proving she is one of the best. Period. Runtime: 1hour 22 minutes – Not Rated \nArrive early to allow time to meet and connect with The Blue Ridge Conservancy and other sponsors of this event and for concessions purchases featuring a full line of popcorn\, candy\, cookies\, soda\, water\, beer and wine. \nThere will be a short panel conversation with local community leaders before the feature film that will explore the convergence of climbing\, recreation\, conservation\, and community. \nThis event supports the recent Blue Ridge Conservancy purchase of the Howard Knob Boulders. \nPresenting Partners of this event: Footsloggers and Destination by Design \nSponsors of this event: Misty Mountain Threadworks\, Lees-McRae Outdoor Recreation Management Department\, and the App State Department of Recreation Management and Physical Education
