The Altitude Gene II: The Mountain of All Mountains

There are several eight-thousand-meter peaks on our planet that are far more dangerous and difficult than Everest. The most formidable of them is K2 — 8,611 meters high, the mountain of mountains. This film explores why K2, rather than Everest, is the ultimate dream of climbers, and how extreme altitude changes people. The mountain of mountains is the best place on Earth to test your altitude gene. For the first time in history, the largest Russian expedition ever assembled is heading to K2, and most of its members are amateurs. Each of them already has experience climbing eight-thousand-meter peaks, and many have successfully summited Everest. But compared to this mountain, Everest will seem like a walk in the park.

The High-Altitude Gene or How to Get to Everest

The film crew of Valdis Pelsh joined the expedition of Russian climbers to Mount Everest in order to climb the highest mountain on Earth. The first expedition was interrupted by a series of earthquakes. In 2016, the group returned to the foot of Mount Everest to tell the story of its conquest and show from beginning to end the process of climbing to the main peak of the world.
