K2: SIREN OF THE HIMALAYAS had a successful world premiere at the Banff Mountain Film Festival! Serendipity struck again in our favor, as our post-production team put the finishing touches on the movie just in time to premiere at a special Banff Centre live event with one of the stars of our film, Gerlinde Kaltenbrunner. The sold out audience responded well, and the film received interest from a few distribution outlets. We’re planning the U.S. Premiere next, stay tuned!
