The documentary "Valley Uprising" (2014) narrated by actor Peter Sarsgaard is about the generations of climbers and adventurers that have come to shape the climbing community in Yosemite National Park.

For the past fifty years, Yosemite's massive cliffs have drawn explorers and madmen to leave materialism behind and venture onto the high, lonesome granite.

The larger-than-life characters of Yosemite carved out an extreme bohemian lifestyle in the valley: living in the dirt, clashing with the National Park authorities, and pioneering the boldest climbs on earth. The torch has been passed across three generations of climbers; through rivalries, tragedies and triumphs, the art of Yosemite climbing has advanced beyond anyone's imagination.
