About
Director Kenji Tsukamoto in person for Q&A!
ASHIMA follows elite rock climber Ashima Shiraishi as she travels to South Africa to attempt to become the youngest climber to master one of the world’s most challenging climbs. Accompanying Ashima is her father and coach Poppo, a former avant-garde dancer who brings an eccentric, tough-love approach to Ashima’s training. Examining the sacrifices required to achieve at the highest level and the complex relationship between immigrant parents and their children, ASHIMA is an intimate coming-of-age story about climbing, family, and the pursuit of the American Dream.
