‘We expect no mercy from Everest’ said George Mallory as he started his final ascent of the treacherous mountain – and he got none. Captain John Noel puts the human struggle at the heart of his magnificent documentary of the expedition. Simon Fisher Turner’s powerful score mirrors Noel’s sense of mystery and passion for the unknown land of Tibet.
