Germany / 1985 / 43'
From an unapproachable summit to a "high beach": this documentary tells the story of the Mount Blanc, from the time when Balmat and Paccard conquered the peak in 1786 to the multitude of mountaineers that throng its peak today. The highest mountain in Europe, that wtnessed the birth of alpinism, warns that mountaineering is a serious sport which requires a sens of responsability and conscientious preparation.
