The film illustrates and documents the expedition that conquered one of the most longed for goal of the International Alpinism and has offered this enterprise the means of recalling it not only on a scientific and documentaristic field, but also and over on a poetical and dramatic vision of the struggle suffered especially in the part regarding the final attack to the massif up to that time unprofaned. The deep meaning of this work coincides with the spirit inspiring the idea of the Alpine Societies: the victory of man over the mountain.
