The Academy Award nominees have been announced and we're here to help you catch up with For Your Consideration, a series of encore screenings of some of 2018's best films in a wide range of genres.

From award-winning documentary filmmaker E. Chai Vasarhelyi
(Meru) and world-renowned photographer and mountaineer Jimmy Chin comes National Geographic Documentary Film’s Free Solo, a stunning, intimate and unflinching portrait of the free soloist climber Alex Honnold, as he prepares to achieve his lifelong dream: climbing the face of the world’s most famous rock ... the 3,000ft El Capitan in Yosemite National Park ... without a rope.

Celebrated as one of the greatest athletic feats of any kind, Honnold’s climb set the ultimate standard: perfection or death. Succeeding in this challenge, Honnold enters his story in the annals of human achievement. Free Solo is both an edge-of-your seat thriller and an inspiring portrait of an athlete who exceeded our current understanding of human physical and mental potential. The result is a triumph of the human spirit.

Besides being the Roxy's most successful film to date, Free Solo has received arguably a greater honor: an Academy Award nomination for Best Documentary Feature.
