Synopsis:

During the summer of 1936, two Bavarian soldiers, Toni Kurz and Andi Hinterstoisser decide to embark on an ascent of the north face of the Eiger, in true German mountaineering spirit. Known as one of the most difficult climbs in the Alps, this legendary and tragic ascension was to be tracked by several journalists including Toni's girlfriend, who worked for a German publication. Goebbels was quick to transform the two mountaineers into heroes for the greater glory of the Third Reich, although neither of them were members of the national socialist party.

Set in 1936, centers around four mountain climbers who attempt to climb the north face of the Eiger Mountain in Switzerland and the tragic events that follow.

Drama focussing on the attempt by German climbers in the 1930s to conquer the north face of the Eiger.
