The old and eccentric Ebenezer Scrooge is a misanthrope and miser. His only friend was his business partner Jacob Marley, who died on Christmas Eve seven years earlier. Since then, Ebenezer has been running the business alone. Christmas is just around the corner again, an abomination for the hard-hearted misanthrope. So he not only rejects his nephew Fred, who invites him to Christmas dinner, but also everyone who asks for alms. When Mr. Scrooge comes home on Christmas Eve, he is astonished to find Jacob Marley, his deceased business partner, waiting for him. He is not the only guest; three more ghosts follow. A night that Ebenezer will never forget lies ahead of him.

MovieAdventureDocumentary
Dynamism and precision, confidence and concentration, incredible strength and 100 percent control of the body. These are the ingredients for extreme climbing. The Huber brothers have plenty of this! For one last time, they want to prove to all their friends and followers that they can still handle extremely difficult routes. It is their last big goal and for this they chose an incredibly steep wall in the Alps that they have not yet been able to conquer. This is part of what is perhaps the most difficult route in the Alps, the " Karma " route. The film also portrays the Huber brothers outside the world of mountains and climbing. The viewer will also get to know them as musicians and they will talk about the past, long-gone successes and failures. In addition to a very personal story, you will also see never-before-seen 3D images of extreme beauty and depth.
