Zodiac packs some of the hardest climbing in Yosemite into sixteen pitches, and at 5.13d it had seen only two free ascents when Babsi Zangerl and Jacopo Larcher arrived in 2016. Louder Than Eleven's film covers the fight that followed.

Ten minutes, released years after it was shot, with an original score and the kind of El Cap camerawork LT11 has been doing since 2008. It is a straightforward record of two people going to battle on a wall that had turned back almost everyone, and it holds up because the climbing does not need dressing.
