Embracing the Grim

- This may not be your conventional adventure film, but perhaps we’ve seen enough of those.
Embracing the Grim follows Line van den Berg and I to the ephemeral landscapes of the Scottish Highlands, on an ambitious mixed climbing mission beset by typically fickle weather.
Aleksandra Janiak impressively directed, produced, filmed and edited this short film with an all-female crew. In 2023, Embracing the Grim was the only film to be shown at Kendal Mountain Festival with females only in the closing credits.
Despite the numerous obstacles we encountered, the most unexpected twist was yet to come. Tragically, since filming, Line lost her life in an avalanche in the Swiss Alps. The film was finished in her memory.
At the heart of it all, it was about the three of us.
I wish you were here to finish it with us and see it Line.

Lovely to see that again Fay, thanks. Line was such a vibrant personality.
@@climbermacleod she loved playing around on her axes with you in your boulder room. “Have you tried this Dave?”. She made me so happy that day, telling you about how she was going to write a book and sharing all her plans.
Thank you, Fay, for continuing to produce and release this movie! And for giving us another glimpse into the world of Line and yourself 😊
A beautiful film. What a tribute to Line
Wonderful! A fantastic way to celebrate and remember Line ❤
Love it 🥳🤓
Great film!
🥺🥹❤️Thank you girls. Such a nice film. It totally reflects Lines energy.
"Energy will do anything that can be done in the world; and no talents, no circumstances, no opportunities will make a two-legged animal a man without it".
Line gave me so much energy in mountaineering. She gave energy to everyone that surrounded her.
Thank you! That is a great tribute to Line ❤, to who she was and what she stood up for! 😢
@@jchvre 🧡 I believe Line would be proud of her powerful voice and message in the film
@@FayManners I am sure! Climb on!
Great little film Fay! Line seemed like a fantastic personality.
Thanks @@DaveSearle she was such a strong character 🫶
Fay, Line - thank you so much for that undescribable strength, cheerfulness and beauty! I cannot find words to describe how much you're inspiring me since I discovered you on AlpenFilmFestival last year. It grieves me so much, that I will never have the chance to meet Line 🥀 But her powerful message -which is also yours, Fay, reaches me nevertheless. It encourages me to keep going to become an Alpinist, a female person in the mountains. To believe in myself and go for it! 🙏Again, thank you. You are gorgeous ! ❤🔥
Thank you so much for these compassionate and heart warming words.
I hope you have managed to find some female partners too and that you will keep pushing yourself in the mountains 🙏🫶💪💕

Thank you Kacey. The most precious things in life are not those you get for money. Line gave me so many precious memories and I will forever be grateful for that.
