A nicely done award-winning film on the 1997 Slovakian Kangchenjunga Expedition. Led by experienced Himalayan climber Jaryk Stejskal, the 11-member team attempted the difficult 1981 Czechoslovak Route. Poor weather plagued the expedition throughout their multiple summit attempts. A high point was reached just 80 meters below the summit by Juraj Kardhordo and Jaroslav Vondercik. Five months later Kardhordo would be killed on Manaslu. This includes a bonus feature on Mustang in English. With English subtitles.
