“My name’s Kyle. It’s 7 o’clock in the morning and I’m naked in Kyrgyzstan.”
Is that the best start ever to an adventure film? Probably. In 2011, alpinist Kyle Dempster set out across Kyrgyzstan’s back roads on his bike. He was alone, carried only a minimalist’s ration of climbing gear, with ten Kyrgyz words to round out his vocabulary. He’d purchased his bike just weeks before and had never bike toured.
In a world of branded content, this stands out as true adventure.
