The world's foremost climbing team attempts to scale the unconquered peak of the notorious Nanga Parbat, "King of Mountains". For champion climber Hermann Buhl, success is a passionate obsession, and the summit dares him on. For team leader Karl Herrligkoffer, the conquest will avenge his brother's death twenty years before and win glory for their German homeland. Wrestling their personal obsessions, testing their physical limits, and battling the treacherous slopes, the men clash wills, and Buhl strikes out alone. The experience changes his life forever...when he confronts life, death and victory on a spectacular frozen peak.
