High on a Hill is a video that exposes a romance bond between two children of the Alps – Miss Heidi, the classic fairy tale mountaineer and a young goat herder, and the impracticality of their cliché romance in the light of global warming. High on a Hill attempts to juxtapose certain environmental realities (i.e. melting snow caps) upon the realm of traditional Hollywood cinema, in order to disrupt naïve utopian ideologies as well as address issues of climate change.
