7pm - 9pm
Filmabend Nordwand (2008)
Alpine climbing in its most extreme form!
In the summer of 1936 two teams of alpinists set off to climb the most dangerous rock face in the Alps, the North Face of the Eiger. Encouraged by the Nazis promise of fame for the first team to arrive at the peak, they risk their lives trying to conquer the Nordwand. And what begins as a quest for glory soon becomes a desperate fight for survival.
