This was so so beautiful. Touching and extremely sad .
It evoked very happy and sad memories of my own mountaineer father..not an 8k climber but in the extreme none the less.
The way the familys story shown and laid out is tremendous and keeps you holding on until the very bitter sweet end. There were a couple of points where tears flooded down my face but one particular moment is where the dad is asked a question he doesnt answer and it made me cry like a baby. You will know when you see it.
You dont have to come from a mountaineering family to understand loss. The mountains just add another element.
But I connected on all levels and I could feel the pain in my chest when hearing the heart breaking stories from survivors. But unlike a lot of "survivor stories" there is tonnes of video footage leading up to the moments we all dread.
Beautiful and sad is all I can say. Its a solid 9 stars.
