Watch your step !! And watch out for the brilliant travel/adventure documentary - “The Second Step” which tells of Warren Macdonald's amazing story to overcome what to many would be unsurmountable odds -to climb Federation Peak after losing both his legs in a climbing accident.
Filmed amid the stunning landscape of the Tasmanian South West World Heritage wilderness, this documentary keeps wowing international audiences and critics with “The Second Step” having just received the JURY’S AWARD at the 6th annual Vancouver International Mountain Film Festival.
This brings the total to five awards that the film has received in the past six months, the others being :
Grand Prize (best film): Banff Mountain Film Festival 2002
Best Mountaineering Film: Kendal Mountain Film Festival 2002
Human Spirit Award: Teluride Mountain Film Festival 2002
Also Woodford Folk Festival Short Film Festival Finalist 2002
Climbing one mountain was definitely not enough for Warren though, who recently made a successful climb to the summit of Mt. Kilamanjaro just a few weeks ago accompanied by Tanzanian born Hamisi Lugonda, who was born without arms.
