I have not edited this movie. He watched as a child in the club mountain. I did not know the original was different. I rescued him from a videotape K7, but when watching, it was on 16mm roll film. It is a pleasure to share it!

Is the name of the film's author Mike Hoover. It was he who gave that name. For me it is clear your choice!

@tisaacso: soloing is aid. ;-) Really, one can solo on aid with rope, solo free with rope as back-up protection, or solo without a rope.

Thanks very much, DennisJulian, for posting. Brings back lost memories.

Wow, I've been looking for this film for years - thank God for YouTube! I made a video transfer copy from a 16mm film of this from a church library but lost it after several house moves. I've always thought about it wondering if there will be a dvd of it. It's a great film short and I've looked every where for it. So glad someone put it on YT, edited or not, it's still great viewing as well as memorable music. From what I heard, Timothy Huntley who edited it also helped with the music.

This looks more like aid to me. Why the "solo" in the title?

One of the best and nicest short films ever made. This is a real treasure, thank you for putting it up.
