It
was the ultimate year for the historical making of EXTREME - filmed
with IMAX® cameras. Skiing and snowboarding perilous untouched
mountain peaks; climbing vertical frozen waterfalls and magnificent
red-rock spires; surfing some of the largest waves ever surfed
and windsurfing El Nino strength winds, EXTREME takes audiences
to the action of outdoor adventure sports like never before.
EXTREME
combines incredible extreme sport action with narration from the
athletes and an eclectic, contemporary soundtrack as it explores
the paradox of human nature: facing fear from the edge of life.
EXTREME shares an understanding of those who have made their passion
a lifestyle and provides a unique glimpse into the relationship
between nature and humanity - of an earth at its most surreal
and athletes who continuously strive to feel her magnanimous,
powerful shapes. By capturing the calculated precision of sport
in the most intimidating elements of nature on 15/70mm film (with
a negative 10 times the size of traditional 35mm film, allowing
images to be projected crystal clear onto 8-story-high screens)
viewers will see and experience the action as though they are
actually there.
EXTREME
guarantees an assembly of the best athletes in the world, including
a number of past and current world champions, as they challenge
the most intimidating forces of nature during her most volatile
year.
