Paraclimber Lucia Capovilla

Lucia Capovilla has always had to carve out her own path. Along the way, her Nonna was one of her biggest supporters. And her hard work has paid off; today Lucia is the runner-up world champion in paraclimbing.

Leggera with Lucia Capovilla

Lucia Capovilla was born without a left lower arm. When she started climbing, her grandmother would constantly be testing materials, trying to sew her granddaughter a suitable sock to protect the skin on her left arm while climbing. And she succeeded – although giving up was never an option for Lucia anyway. As a motivational speaker, she now inspires her audience to push their boundaries and surpass their own limits – an attitude that she lives every day. Today, the Italian is one of the best paraclimbers around. 

The film Leggera gives some insight into the athlete's private life: her experiences on the rock, training sessions, her family and her childhood.

You're
