First documentary on Reinhold Messner, the world’s greatest mountaineer, since Werner Herzog’s “Dark Glow of the Mountains” in 1984. Messner looks back over his career with surprising candor and self-revelation. His solo climb of Mt. Everest without using bottled oxygen, in 1980, was described by Jon Krakauer as “a deed widely regarded as the greatest mountaineering feat of all time.” |
