To The Limit

 

aka: Am Limit
Germany 2007, 95 minutes
Dir. Pepe Danquart
In German, English with English subtitles
Genres: Foreign Cinema, Documentary

Topics: Sport.

 

Aroview: Extreme sport doco, from the director of HELL ON WHEELS, following the lofty ambitions of two speed rock-climbing brothers attempting to summit a Yosemite peak in record time.

Some astonishingly close-up cinematography matches the 'wow' factor of the climbing feats on display, while intriguing insights are gleaned from the ups and downs of sibling rivalry in a sport renowned for its fierce competition and reckless risk-taking. Not quite up there with Herzog's docos of extremity and endurance, but a nail-biting piece of vicarious vertigo all the same, bound to leave you on the edge of your seat.
