Description
The Bright Stone follows adventure photographer and filmmaker Gareth Leah as he embarks on a journey to climb a remote granite tower in the hidden wilderness of Cachoeira de Itapemirim, Brazil. This short, meditative vignette captures the raw essence of establishing a new big wall route while peeling back layers of motivation. As Gareth battles the physical and mental challenges, the film delves into the deeper question: Why do we willingly confront fear? Through breathtaking imagery and introspective narration, The Bright Stone becomes a reflection on the human pursuit of what lies beyond comfort.
