Touching the Void (2003, USA, Kevin MacDonald) AKA I Kiss the Sky
First up, I had planned to write something of the sorta depth and catch-yer-breath fascination that this here film deserves, but I just plain ran outta time (going on holidays tomorrow) and energy (I’ve got ten other films I outta be saying something about as well). Still and all, lemme tell you that as a study of the pure primal urge to survive, that fundamental refusal to surrender to oblivion that resides in the core of our being, you've gotta give it up for Touching the Void.
