In 1985, Joe Simpson and Simon Yates, young and skilled climbers, set out to climb the west face of the Siula Grande in the Peruvian Andes, a feat that had previously been attempted but never achieved. Disaster strikes when Joe falls a short distance and breaks several bones in his leg. With no hope of rescue, the men decided to attempt the descent together with Yates lowering Simpson 300 feet at a time in a slow, painful process that could have potentially been deadly for both. When Joe goes out over an overhang with no way of climbing back up, and certain they were about to be jointly pulled to their deaths, Yates makes the decision to cut the rope and let his friend fall. An unforgettable experience directed by Kevin Macdonald (Oscar-winner One Day In September).

Deutsch Britisches Dokudrama aus dem Jahr 2004, das auf dem gleichnamigen Buch von Joe Simpson basiert. Die beiden Bergsteiger Simon Yates und Joe Simpson besteigen den 6.356 Meter hohen Berg Siula Grande in den Anden. Alles funktioniert bestens. Doch beim Abstieg stürzt Joe ab.
Português Em 1985, Joe Simpson e Simon Yates prepararam-se para subir os 6.400 metros de Siula Grande, nos Andes do Peru - a única montanha daquela região ainda por conquistar. Eles eram novos, alpinistas em boa forma física e com experiência, convencidos de que iriam ser bem sucedidos onde outros falharam. Após uma subida triunfante em apenas três dias, o desastre aconteceu: Joe cai e parte a perna direita, deixando Simon encarregue de os conduzir a salvo. Mas, sem comida nem água, e com um frio excruciante a uma enorme altitude, a única coisa que podiam esperar é a morte certa.
Italiano Touching the void, documentario di Kevin MacDonald, racconta di un'impresa drammatica, compiuta da Simon Yates e Joe Simpson (autore de La morte sospesa, il bestseller da cui è tratto il film), due alpinisti, che hanno conquistato, nel 1985, la vetta del Siula Grande sulle Ande peruviane. Simon e Joe, sono amici, e appassionati di scalate. L'ascesa al picco sembra una passeggiata, tutto fila liscio, solo qualche problema dovuto agli agenti atmosferici. Nella discesa, però, Joe scivola e si rompe la gamba. La situazione è critica, e nella mente dei due passano mille pensieri. Salvarsi da solo e abbandonare il compagno o fare di tutto per salvarlo da morte certa? Improvvisamente una corda si rompe, e Joe precipita in un crepaccio. Solo un miracolo potrà salvarlo.

svenska Maj 1985, Peru. Joe Simpson och Simon Yates, två orädda unga bergsklättrare, ger sig iväg för att ta sig upp för den dittills obestigna västra sidan av Siula Grande, en avlägsen och förrädisk bergstopp i de peruanska Anderna. Simpson och Yates når toppen, men precis efter att de börjat nedstigningen förvandlar en olycka deras djärva expedition till en desperat kamp för överlevnad. "Touching the Void" bygger på Joe Simpsons internationella bästsäljare och dokumenterar en av vår tids mest enastående sanna berättelser om vad en människa kan uthärda. Denna fängslande, fascinerande film kombinerar dramatiska rekonstruktioner av den ödesdigra klättringen med intervjuer med de två män som den nästan dödade.

El otro intenta ayudarlo a bajar a un lugar seguro, pero las cosas no resultan tan fáciles.

Polski Wydarzenia przedstawione w dokumencie zdobywcy Oskara za "One Day in September" Kevina Macdonalda rozegrały się w roku 1985, a jego bohaterowie byli wówczas młodymi, sprawnymi, świetnie wyszkolonymi alpinistami. Joe Simpson i Simon Yates wyruszają w góry, aby zdobyć szczyt Siula Grande w peruwiańskich Andach od ściany zachodniej. Do tej pory ta sztuka nie udała się nikomu. Pierwsze trzy dni wyprawy przebiegają zgodnie z planem, jednak w końcu zdarza się wypadek. Joe Simpson upada i łamie sobie kilka kości w nodze. Bez szans na jakąkolwiek pomoc, obaj śmiałkowie postanawiają kontynuować wspinaczkę z Joe Simpsonem zawieszonym na linie. Każdy fałszywy ruch może się okazać dla nich śmiertelny.
Český Roku 1985 se dva horolezci, Joe Simpson a Simon Yates, vydali zdolat horu Siula Grande v Peruánských Andách. Při sestupu si Simpson zlomil nohu, což se za daných podmínek rovnalo v podstatě jisté smrti. Yates se jej přesto pokoušel spustit na laně. Když ale i jemu hrozil pád a nevěděl, co se s jeho partnerem stalo, lano odřízl a pokračoval v sestupu sám. Simpson pád do ledové průrvy přežil. Zvládne ale sestup do tábora sám a s vážnými zraněními?
עִבְרִית סרטו של קווין מקדונלד הוא שחזור של אחד הסיפורים המצמררים בתולדות טיפוס ההרים. ג'ו סימפסון וסיימון ייטס, מטפסי הרים בריטיים צעירים בחרו לטפס בשנת 1985 על הר סיולה גרנדה בפרו, שעל פסגתו התלולה מעולם לא דרכה רגל אדם. הם מצליחים במשימתם הקשה, אך בירידה מההר בסופת שלג סימפסון נופל ושובר את רגלו. השניים ממשיכים כנגד כל הסיכויים, עד שעל ייטס לבחור: למות יחד עם חברו הפצוע והגוסס או לחתוך את החבל ולהציל לפחות את חייו. על רקע צילומים מדהימים ביופיים של ההר המושלג, משחזר מקדונלד בעזרת שני שחקנים את המאבק לחיים של שני הצעירים, כשייטס וסימפסון עצמם מספקים את הקריינות ומתארים כל אחד את חלקו באירועים. זה לא סרט דוקומנטרי סטנדרטי עם ראשים מדברים של הגיבורים וצילומי נופים וגם לא סרט עלילתי שהיה חוטא למטרה. השילוב בין השניים מעביר לצופים את חוויית טיפוס ההרים במלואה, על יופייה ועל סכנותיה, ומחדד את הדילמה המוסרית העומדת במרכז הסרט.

Using the story of the Red Star Line as a narrative vessel, this three-part documentary by Daniël Cattier and Fabio Wuytack explains why European emigrants left their homes behind for an uncertain future. It details their trips to Antwerp, their travel across the ocean, and their adjustments to their new lives in America. Theirs are intimate yet epic journeys in which past and present merge in the forging of new identities.
The film, which is shot on location in Antwerp, New York, Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary, Russia and Ukraine, uses ‘emotional archaeology’ to weave a richer narrative than could be conveyed through a string of facts and figures. And walking in the footsteps of Red Star Line passengers, surprising similarities are revealed to the experiences of modern immigrants.
