What is Here to Climb about?

“The documentary follows professional climber Sasha DiGiulian rising from child prodigy to a champion sport climber, as she ultimately makes her mark by taking her talents to the biggest walls on the planet with a series of bold, first female ascents,” the official synopsis reads. “Confronting both physical and mental obstacles head on, Sasha charts her own course in a sport where a path didn’t exist, enabling her passion to become a viable profession. Driven by breathtaking photography that places the viewer on some of the most daunting and risky walls in the world, Here to Climb details the unparalleled drive and determination needed to reach the top. As Sasha takes on summit after summit, inspired and mentored by female climbing icon Lynn Hill, she faces a variety of hurdles, including attacks on her public image and motivations in climbing, sometimes at the expense of safety, cyberbullying over her bodyweight, and a possible career ending injury that led to five serious surgeries in one year. Here to Climb is a thrilling portrait of a record-breaking female athlete who relentlessly pushes her boundaries, redefining success on her own terms.”

Here to Climb is produced by Nate Nash, Ben Gryan, and Isabella Franca. Charlie Rosene, Brian Lenz, Stern, Annie Sundberg, Nancy Abraham, Lisa Heller, and Bentley Weiner serve as executive producers.

Along with DiGiulian, Here to Climb features Cedar Wright, Alex Honnold, Lynn Hill, Angela VanWiemeersch, Vian Charbonneau, Pablo Durana, Andrea DiGiulian, and Erik Osterholm.

Here to Climb debuts on Max on Tuesday, June 18, 2024.
