ABOUT THE FILM
Three adventurers set out to find a needle in the haystack of the Himalayas, guided and inspired by a 126-year old photograph taken by the godfather of Adventure Photography – Vittorio Sella.
A Thousand Words, sponsored by KE Adventure, experts in the Himalaya, explores a journey from the dusty archives of the Alpine Club to northern Italy and the darkroom of iconic Italian photographer Vittorio Sella – from the bustling streets of Kathmandu to the flanks of Kangchenjunga.
In tracing Sella’s journey over a century on, A Thousand Words questions the purpose of adventure and photography, exploring ways of seeing both old and new.
