A Must-Watch Film About Risk in the Mountains

A mountain guide talks about the gap between what we percieve in the mountains and what's really happening

How much can we gain from the mountains? How much can we lose? Between our own perceptions and the reality of the hazards, how much space exists?

And in that gap, how do we decide what we are willing to risk? Solving for Z explores IFMGA guide and father Zahan Billimoria’s relationship to the intoxicating highs and crushing blows of a life in the high-consequence environment of big mountain skiing.

Solving for Z features Zahan Billimoria, Kim Billimoria, Rich Rinaldi, Nat Patridge, Don Sharaf, Jeremy Jones Griffin Post and Ian Macintosh.
