Touching the Void

Directed by Kevin Macdonald

From the director of ONE DAY IN SEPTEMBER. This harrowing yet starkly beautiful drama-documentary recounts the ill-fated 1985 Andean expedition of two young British climbers, Simon Yates and Joe Simpson. Mixing atmospheric reconstruction and present-day interviews with the pair, this is one of the finest British films of last year.
