The Alps

Alps

The Alps follows a stirring human story that unfolds amid some of nature’s most awe-inspiring scenery. At the heart of the film is John Harlin III’s climb of the storied North Face of the Eiger. Harlin has been haunted by the Eiger since childhood when his father, famed alpinist John Harlin II, fell to his death as he neared the summit of the North Face. “Against a backdrop of overwhelming natural beauty, The Alps is a true-life story of extraordinary courage,” says director Stephen Judson. “It’s the intensely personal journey of a man, John Harlin, who has every reason not to climb the deadly Eiger North Face—yet climb it he must.”
