This is a brilliantly produced film about how Australian Mountain Climber Michael Groom conquers the worlds top five mountains against the fierce rage and torment of Mother Nature.

His efforts from an outsiders view which can only be described as insane, see him constantly dance with death in order to satisfy his spiritual hunger.

This hunger is so compelling that he returns to the icy heights of the Himalaya writhing with agony on frostbitten and toeless feet!

The video cover portrayed womens breasts and immediately I thought it was going to be a trashy film, this was not so! It was a well executed character driven film concentrating on lifestyle, love and changing lifestyles. Very little dialogue which was incredible to watch and when it was utilised, it was very powerful. A quiet beginning, but unfolded soon to be quiet intriguing. I found the script to be masterly. In addition to excellent performances by Ben Kingsley and Nastasha Kinsky. Definitely worth watching if you like this genre and plot line. A little more scenery wouldn't go astray, but overall - brilliant - it wasn't a trashy boob harem movie at all (sorry to disappoint you fellas)
