Arc’teryx
Keep It Real 2
Keep It Real 2 captures a side of bouldering
that you’d be forgiven for forgetting. As climbing culture grows increasingly obsessed with grades
and performance, this film reminds us that bouldering
is so much more. Set in the forest of Fontainebleau,
a crew of high-end competition climbers seek
respite from the pressure to perform.
Time to catch a vibe, and keep it real.
