DVD/Blu-ray Film - North Face of the Eiger
“The climbing sequences equal those of ‘Touching The Void’” 5 stars! (Financial Times)
“More tense and edge-of-your-seat suspenseful than ‘Touching The Void’” 4 stars! (The Independent)
“North Face” is a journey to the death-defying heart of danger and suspense, reliving 48 white- knuckle hours that would go down in history. It is the incredible story behind the first ever attempted scaling of the North Face of the infamous Eiger Mountain.
Summer 1936. Bearing the expectations of a nation and their Führer, German climbers Andreas Hinterstoisser & Toni Kurz set out to be the first to conquer the “last great problem of the Alps”. But soon their ascent becomes a race for survival, threatened by injury and storms of unimaginable fury. Before long, their quest becomes a pulse-pounding race against both time and the awesome forces of nature.
Shot through with scenes of gut-wrenching peril rivalling those of “Touching the Void”, “North Face” is a powerful, breathtaking tale of human endurance on a terrifying landscape; towering over 1,800m, the North Face has claimed over 60 lives and earned itself the grimly appropriate nickname: "the murder wall".
