National Geographic Documentary Films also brought Tim McGraw on board and he co-wrote with Lori McKenna and performed the original song Gravity specifically for Free Solo.

Free Solo has been called everything from a “Masterpiece” (The Seattle Times) to “Thrilling” (The San Francisco Chronicle).

With a nearly perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes and it’s lofty awards, the Free Solo documentary is absolutely not to be missed.
