A dramatic, true account of dizzying achievement, "Everest" follows the expedition of four climbers on their journey to the summit of Everest, just days after eight climbers lost their lives in a deadly storm, a story chronicled in Jon Krakauer’s best-selling book "Into Thin Air." Narrated by Liam Neeson, the film is a celebration of triumph over adversity and the power of the human spirit.
Audiences will revisit the inspiring ascent of the world’s tallest mountain with a team of four international climbers who find hope, beauty, and triumph in the wake of tragedy.
