It's weird this is pitched and advertised as a climbing doc but I feel the emphasis is more on this very cool bio documenting story. It's really a nature doc. This fascinating story about Bruce's last expedition in a miraculous life could have had more emotional justice than the climbing did. I kinda wish it had picked one for emphasis cause trying to have two focuses too away from it. Regardless cool story and amazing climb from Alex I would have been interested to see more of. Fascinating story- got me to learn about biodiversity I wouldn't have.
