Everest: The Other Side

An intimate portrait of two people bound by love, ambition, and the pursuit of the impossible. Elite ski mountaineers Jim Morrison and Hilaree Nelson fell deeply in love while reaching the pinnacle of their sport. Their drive sharpened into a shared dream: to climb and ski Everest’s direct North Face—the most dangerous climb on the mountain and the most coveted ski line on Earth. Thousands have summited via Nepal’s southeast ridge, but only a handful have reached the top by this route, and no one has ever skied down. Already known for their extraordinary feats in the mountains and no strangers to loss, Morrison and Nelson stake everything on this daunting challenge.

"Beyond all the extraordinary photography of Himalayan mountain ranges, icy crevasses and plunging couloirs, Everest: The Other Side is a film about how we choose to live our lives and what it means for those we love."—Phil de Semlyen, Time Out.
