Meeting with Tom Ballard - festival guest. TOM lives with his old father James in a camping in the Dolomites. They both live on his small pension. Even if his mother, the great British alpinist Alison Hargreaves, died descending the K2 when he was just 6 years old, he never wanted to be anything else than a climber. His whole life is dedicated to the mountains and his last goal is to climb solo the Six North Faces of the Alps in a single winter season. Nobody ever did it, and he wants to be the first. In a white van driven by James, Tom will travel through the Alps to make his dream come true.
