One of my favorite books about the great outdoors is Mountains of the Mind by Robert Macfarlane. It’s a study of how human perception shapes how we see the mountains and the emotions and fascination we feel when exploring the high places. I was very excited when I heard that Jennifer Peedom, director of the critically acclaimed Sherpa, was directing a then new film simply entitled Mountain, with the narration taken directly from the book.
It's a stunning film, with most of the cinematography provided by Renan Ozturk of Meru and The Sanctity of Space fame. (In fact, both Meru and Mountain make our list of the 10 best climbing films, but I digress...)
