The Alpinist

The Alpinist
Directed by Peter Mortimer and Nick Rosen
Cast: Marc-Andre Leclerc, Brette Harrington, Peter Mortimer
Genre: Documentary
PG-13
1hr 33mins

Marc-André Leclerc climbs alone, far from the limelight. On remote alpine faces, the free-spirited 23-year-old Canadian makes some of the boldest solo ascents in history. Yet, he draws scant attention. With no cameras, no rope, and no margin for error, Leclerc’s approach is the essence of solo adventure. Nomadic and publicity shy, he doesn’t own a phone or car, and is reluctant to let a film crew in on his pure vision of climbing. Veteran filmmaker Peter Mortimer (THE DAWN WALL) sets out to make a film about Leclerc but struggles to keep up with his elusive subject. Then, Leclerc embarks on a historic adventure in Patagonia that will redefine what is possible in solo climbing.

Secrets of Brunswick by Red Cloak Tours

Explore Brunswick in a unique and exciting way – through a Red Cloak Walking Tour! Offered daily, these walking tours will give you an inside look into the historic area and some of the earlier residents as well as a spirit or two that inhabit the area.

Hear real history as well as little known folklore as you experience a walk back in time on the easy stroll through one of the historic sections in town. Tours are offered several times every day through November.

The tours are private for your family or group and are appropriate for all ages. Guided from point to point by your professional storyteller, in real time, the walks are done by phone via conference call. This allows for questions, interaction and personalization on your Maine “Adventure in Discovery.” Up to 10 people can join in on the call for $29.95 total.

A Red Cloak “TeleTour” can be booked online or over the phone. Other types of historical tours are available throughout the state. www.RedCloakTours.com or 207-380-3806.
