Synopsis

As intergalactically infamous recreational climbers Cam and Vinny grow older, a nagging question keeps echoing in their helmets: ‘IS THIS WORTH IT?’
The more Peruvian mountains they chase, the louder it gets. Yet they can’t shake the conflicting truth that : ‘the most dangerous thing you can do in life is play it safe’.
So they continue their reckless nonsense, wrestling with high altitude diarrhea, questionable decisions, and the thin line between bravery and straight-up stupidity.
A film part expedition, part existential crisis.
