MONTE SARMIENTO – THE WHITE DIVA

Description
It’s the seventh time for the adventurer Ralf Gantzhorn and his friends the pro-climber Fritz Miller and Axel Voss that they take off and start the difficult journey to the very South of Patagonia /Argentina, the so called “Tierra del Fuego”. It’s the perfect adventure, combining a sailing trip through the Beagle Channel with a mountaineering expedition that has the goal to climb “Monte Sarmiento” , an ice incrusted mountain towering 2500m above the sea. Over 20 Expeditions have tried to reach the main summit before, but only 2 were able to overcome the severe weather conditions and the technical difficulties of Monte Sarmiento. “The White Diva” is a road (boat) movie following the three adventurers along their journey through one of the wildest and untouched regions of our planet to get to their mountain of dreams
