Everest
Towering above everything you have seen before.
Directed by David Breashears, Stephen Judson, Greg MacGillivray
Produced by MacGillivray Freeman Films, IMAX
A visually stunning documentary of human ambition and endurance against nature's most formidable challenge, balancing triumph with the ever-present threat of death.
An international team of climbers ascends Mt. Everest in the spring of 1996. The film depicts their lengthy preparations for the climb, their trek to the summit, and their successful return to Base Camp. It also shows many of the challenges the group faced, including avalanches, lack of oxygen, treacherous ice walls, and a deadly blizzard.
