Climbing Iran plot

'It doesn't matter who you are or where you live, gravity pulls just as hard,' says Nasim Eshqi. Sport saved her life and when she accidentally discovered climbing at the age of 23 she even found a zest for life. Nasim is now the only woman in Iran to open new climbing routes. For her passion, Nasim has to push physical, mental and cultural boundaries because there are strict rules for women. She climbs in India, Turkey and Armenia and in between she teaches other women how to climb at home. She dreams of opening a route in the Alps as well.
