“An Accidental Life,” streaming from the Big Sky Documentary Film Festival 2022 until February 26, tells the story of an accomplished big wall climber who was paralyzed by a 120-foot fall on the Nose, in Yosemite, in 2017.
“The Wall—Climb for Gold” is a 90-minute film that follows four Olympic athletes, from qualification to their performance on the big stage. Like any good sports film, it is deeply emotional.

This list, compiled in the early days of quarantine, looks past the big films (Free Solo, the Alpinist) and instead suggests a few excellent but lesser-known films.
