Victory over Annapurna (1953)
• May 5th, 1953 • 0h 56min
Documentary, Adventure
Overview
In 1950, a French expedition led by Maurice Herzog went to central Nepal to conquer the highest peak (8,091 meters): Annapurna. The film is not only made of what we see, but even more of what we don't see. Its imperfections are the negative imprint of the adventure. Memory is the most faithful of films.
