"Die Steilwand"

Four passionate female mountaineers who have already tackled various climbs together want to climb Mount Fitz Roy in the Chilean-Argentinean Andes and do so as the first all-female group: Anna, Kathy, Julia, and Laura. They are faced with the last decisive rock face when it is discovered that Julia is seriously ill. She will not be able to complete the ascent and descent, at least not without assistance. Who is willing to give up the conquest of life`s dream for Julia`s sake? Latent tensions among the women, also fueled by Philipp who follows the group via radio frequencies, threaten to explode.
