Rising 21,000 feet above the sacred Ganges River, the Shark’s Fin on Mount Meru is the ultimate test in the high-stakes world of big-wall climbing. The "anti-Everest," Meru has long defeated the world’s best climbers, earning it the reputation as the most complicated and dangerous peak in the Himalayas. When alpinists Conrad Anker, Jimmy Chin and Renan Ozturk embark on an expedition to tackle the Shark’s Fin for the first time, they confront nature’s harshest elements and their own personal limitations in an attempt to achieve the impossible. A breathtaking real-life tale of survival, friendship and redemption featuring best-selling author Jon Krakauer (INTO THIN AIR) and a score by Oscar-nominated composer J. Ralph (CHASING ICE), MERU is “a meditation on life, death and everything in between.” (NEWSWEEK)

Meru Film Synopsis

Best Documentary Ever!!This movie will have you on the edge of your seat the whole time. It is by far the best movie of the year, period..Score: 5/5

Crazy for climbing Meru. Crazier for Filming it.Meru was so much more than I expected out of a climbing film. I’m not a climber and personally think many of them are borderline crazy. This movie is confirmation that indeed, climbers are insane. What they accomplished is nothing short of remarkable and the fact that they filmed the expedition while on a massive exposed windy rock in 0 degree weather is a testament to their incredible ability as alpinists, filmmakers, and dedicated teammates. I laughed, almost cried, was blown away by the cinematography, and definitely do NOT have any desire to climb Meru after seeing what they went through. Its amazing. Well done Meru Team! You crushed it..Score: 5/5

AWESOME!!!Best Documentary Ever.Score: 5/5

Superb!A superb documentary…totally worth watching. The scale of their accomplishments is staggering, yet imbued with a respect for nature and the mountain.

Wow!!Incredible. I’ve got goosebumps. I don’t even know where to begin. Just see this documentary. It is exciting but it also tugs at your heart. It’s shocking. It’s stunning. It’s entertaining.

Powerful Story of MentorshipThis is one of the finest films I’ve ever seen. It is a powerful story of commitment to complete a lifetime adventure, despite setbacks and adversities. A central theme is Anker’s role in mentorship, both as a mentor and mentee. The photography is outstanding, as is the story-telling. I rented it and will now purchase it..Score: 5/5

Be Good, Be Kind, Be HappyHaving been someone who helped design some of the gear for this expedition, it’s an understatement of how proud I am to see this documentary made. During the planning for this expedition, we on the product team's had little idea how much the three of these athletes were being challenged psychology. Spectacular to watch….Score: 5/5

Tre esperti scalatori sacrificano tutto - tranne la loro amicizia - e combattono la perdita e l'avversa natura mentre tentano di completare la scalata alla "pinna di squalo" del Meru, una delle pareti più ripide dell'Himalaya.

Türkçe
Yönetmenlik koltuğunda Jimmy Chin ve Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi oturduğu ABD ve Hindistan ortak yapımı olan filmde üç elit dağcının, ‘Hint mitolojisinde tanrıların buluşma yeri ve barınağı olarak belirtilen kutsal dağ’ Meru’ya tırmanış öyküsü anlatılıyor....

Português
Na tentativa de realizar uma escalada nunca antes concluída, três alpinistas de elite deixam tudo para trás, exceto a amizade entre eles, enquanto lutam com perdas dolorosas e ásperos elementos da natureza. Eles tentam terminar a subida que é tão cobiçada e perigosa, chamada Shark's Fin, no monte Meru.

Dansk
I 2008 tog de tre venner og professionelle klatrere Conrad Anker, Jimmy Chin og Renan Ozturk til det kolde og nådesløse Himalaya. Deres mission var at bestige det sagnomspundne og stejle bjerg Mount Meru, der siges at være universets centrum. Missionen gik dog næsten så galt, som den kunne. På grund af en fire dage lang snestorm sad de tre klatrere fanget i deres telt, hvor de opbrugte det meste af deres madforsyning, fik forfrysninger og blot hundrede meter fra toppen måtte de vende om. Den erfarne Conrad Anker kunne ikke slippe sit ønske om at bestige det uregerlige bjerg, så tre år og en ulykke senere tog de tre vedholdende klatrere tilbage til Mount Meru. Optakten til turen er omgivet af tårnhøje forventninger og en uudtalt frygt for at mislykkes. I fascinerende billeder er vi med på første hånd, når de tre venner forsøger at bevæge sig op af de stejle, tilfrosne bjergsider for anden gang.

Акулий Плавник на горе Меру – главный приз в рискованной игре скалолазания. Это опасный маршрут, на котором потерпели неудачу лучшие команды скалолазов в мире. Когда Конрад Анкер, Джимми Чин и Ренан Озтерк попытались взойти на высоту в 6 километров, им пришлось преодолевать препятствие за препятствием, включая нехватку еды, снежные бури и минусовую температуру. Отступив перед самой вершиной, усталые и расстроенные Анкер, Чин и Озтерк сталкиваются с невероятными вызовами, благодаря которым Меру стала уникальной историей дружбы, самопожертвования, надежды и упорства.

Deutsch
Die drei Bergsteiger Conrad Anker, Jimmy Chin und Renan Ozturk fassen den Plan, den Meru, einen mehr als 6000 Meter hohen Berg im Himalaya, über die berüchtigte „Shark`s Fin“-Route zu besteigen. Schon zahlreiche professionelle Sportler sind daran gescheitert. Auf ihrem Weg müssen sie verschiedensten Widrigkeiten trotzen, darunter einem Schneesturm, der sie einen Großteil ihrer Vorräte kostet. Fast erreichen sie die Spitze – und müssen doch umkehren. Vor allem Anker, der schon einige Jahre zuvor probierte, den Berg zu erklimmen, kann einfach nicht vor der Vorstellung ablassen, einen weiteren Versuch zu wagen. So kommen die Kletterer drei Jahre später wieder zusammen, um zu beenden, was sie begonnen haben. Ob ihnen nun gelingt, was niemand zuvor geschafft hat?
