A WINNER...
based on the true story of the 1953 assault on Nanga Parbat, a
treacherous Himalayan peak. The world's foremost limbing team attempts to scale the unconquered peak of
the notorious Nanga Parbat, "King of mountains." For champion climber Hermann
Buhl, success is a passionate obsession, and the summit dares him on. For team
leader Karl Herrligkoffer, the conquest will avenge his brother's death twenty
years before and win glory for their German homeland.
Wrestling their
personal obsessions, testing their physical limits, and battling the treacherous
slopes, the men clash wills and Buhl strikes out alone. The experience changes
his life forever...when he confronts life, death, and victory on a spectacular
frozen peak.
