At the Banff Mountain Film Festival this weekend, my favourite movie was “20 Seconds of Joy”, a documentary about one of the top jumpers anywhere, fascinating Karina Hollekim from Norway.
This was a World Premiere so it’s not available yet. But you can see the trailer now.
“I don’t want to die, I want to live. I’m pretty good at running away, and this is my escape!†This is how Karina Hollekim describes her dedication to BASE jumping. Documentary filmmaker Jens Hoffman first met the now 30-year-old Norwegian in 2002. He immediately started to film, accompanying her through many stages of her BASE-jumping career, until it comes to a sudden stop, changing all aspects of her life.
