2006 was one of the worst years in the history of Everest due to the high number of tragic deaths occurring during the ascents. Lincoln Hall, a skilled climber, was asked to participate in an expedition as a cameraman specialising in shooting at altitude. For him, it was his second attempt to reach the summit, having failed the first time, twenty two years before. Just after having reached the summit, Hall started to behave irrationally and to feel very disoriented because of lack of oxygen. Looked after by his loyal porter for more than nine hours, he finally collapsed and was declared dead by the members of the expedition. His family was informed and the media announced the news. That night, something occurred that science cannot explain. The next morning, Lincoln Hall was found alive by some mountaineers and a dramatic rescue operation began. Nobody before had ever been declared dead on Everest at such height and later found to have survived. The film is about Lincoln’s unbelievable story and his miraculous return to life from death in the ice.
