I'll clarify that this "documentary" is not the typical documentary. It mixes drama with documentary-esque narration and is directed by Academy-Award winning director Kevin MacDonald.

It is also the first feature film I've seen that does justice to mountaineering. Some miserable failures include Cliffhanger and Vertical Limit.Read more about it here.

So....does that mean you're going to watch it?

Surely you consider any "made for Lifetime" movies on the same level as the PBS documentaries. They're simply riveting.
