Ostensibly a love triangle romance--between Riefenstahl's young dancer and the two explorers she encounters--Fanck relishes the glorious Alpine landscape by filming death-defying climbing, avalanche-dodging, and frenetic downhiill ski racing.
Overview:
German filmmaker and doctor Arnold Fanck (1889-1974) made this beautifully photographed Bergfilm, or ‘mountain film', in 1926.
Written in three days and nights – especially for Riefenstahl – The Holy Mountain took over a year to film in the Alps with an entourage of expert skiers and climbers.
