"The Last First: Winter K2" is a harrowing documentary by Amir Bar-Lev that explores the dangerous commercialization of extreme climbing. The film follows Icelandic mountaineer John Snorri Sigurjonsson and the father-son Pakistani team of Ali and Sajid Sadpara as they attempt to scale K2 in winter, a feat never before achieved.
Associated Press critic Jocelyn Noveck writes that Bar-Lev presents some extraordinarily intimate footage in this tale of egos, heroism, greed and the unforgiving power of nature. It's a tale of life and death on the mountain. Streaming now on Apple TV.
