🎥 Film Spotlight: Climbing into Life At age 66, Dierdre Wolownick rewrote the rules—and scaled new heights—becoming the oldest woman to summit El Capitan in Yosemite. Directed by Melissa Davey, this deeply inspiring documentary explores Dierdre’s journey from accomplished writer, artist, and musician to late-in-life climber—motivated by the adventurous spirit of her children, including her son Alex Honnold, famed for his death-defying ascent in the Oscar-winning documentary Free Solo. “I am very pleasantly surprised at what Mom has done in the second half of her life.” — Alex Honnold “Even though Dierdre spoke seven languages, played at least 3 instruments, was an oil painter/artist and prolific writer, she still wanted more.” — Hannah Hale 🧗‍♀️ Climbing into Life is a celebration of bold reinvention and boundless human potential. 🗓️ Saturday, May 17 🕕 6 PM at SBDAC 🎟️ Tickets + info: sbdac.com/fort-myers-film-festival Let Dierdre’s story remind you—it’s never too late to climb.
