SEBASTIÁN ÁLVARO LOMBA

Tuesday December 7 – 20:00 Euskalduna

Were George Mallory and Andrew Irvine really the first human beings to reach the highest peak on the planet? This question has been in the collective subconscious ever since they disappeared in 1924 during their attempt to be the first to climb Everest, and it is still remains to be one of the great mysteries of mountaineering. Sebastián Álvaro goes much further in his attempt to find an answer to this enigma. He immerses us in a historical journey through the beginnings of mountaineering from a romantic vision that marked the end of the Great Age of exploration.
