Odds are never zero ... searching for Bradford Washburn's lost camera

History, science and exploration converged in a quest to find the lost camera of one of climbing’s most iconic photographers and cartographers, Bradford Washburn. Set against the backdrop of the pioneering lensmen’s storied 1937 Mount Lucania expedition, this film blurs the lines between adventure documentary, treasure hunt and meditation on why we risk everything to chase the improbable.
