NEW YORK -- IFC Films has snapped up "Touching the Void", a feature documentary about two mountain climbers who battle to survive an Andes trek. The pact saw IFC acquire all North American rights to "Void" and was concluded, appropriately enough, in the Colorado mountains last week at the Telluride Film Festival. Based on the best-selling book by mountaineer Joe Simpson, "Void" was directed by Oscar winner Kevin Macdonald ("One Day in September"). The film follows a disastrous climbing expedition by Simpson and his partner Simon Yates in the Peruvian Andes. Yates risked his life to rescue Simpson when he gravely injured himself as the duo climbed an uncharted mountain face. The film is screening at the 30th anniversary Telluride fest before heading to the Toronto International Film Festival this month.
