someone else's funeral

...with the last five minutes left, before the funeral song is sung, someone is still waiting for a miracle to happen, hoping that the last person will survive, no matter how out of line the miracle is.

No one survived.

The last young man died just a few meters away from his life, where he was hanging, his whole body was frozen, his face was frozen black, and the cold light of the sun hit the sunglasses on his head. The woman he loves is close at hand, watching him take his last breath and lift his head to the top of the mountain and the sky... He and one of his German brothers and two young Austrians fell into the dead north of the Alps.

Isn't it death? That mountain, which also has the same name as the mountain in another reel of another film, had clouds and mists. We drove past late at night and people were performing death in movies.

The script of the movie may be the shroud of any of us, wrapped in a cold and hard body, love, faith, paranoia, and even the only fatal accident in our life, falling heavily into everyone's Alps.

...

People came here in costumes on the little train in the mountains, journalists, adventurers, successful businessmen, hereditary nobles, lovers of gentlemen, telescope renters, soldiers and cleaners, each with their own hopes. I give you the diary, girl, "All my important experiences are written here, including my deep love for you, it keeps all my secrets, and how embarrassing it would be to lose it."



Today I can't write poems and novels, I can't finish my homework, and I can't express the sadness in my heart.

North Face quotes

  • [first lines]

    [in German, quoting English subtitles]

    Luise Fellner: [voiceover] When you're at the bottom - Toni once told me - at the foot of the wall, and you look up, you ask yourself: How can anyone climb that? Why would anyone even want to? But hours later when you're at the top looking down, you've forgotten everything. Except the one person you promised you would come back to.

  • [last lines]

    [in German, quoting English subtitles]

    Luise Fellner: [voiceover] All I know is that death spared me, and that Toni went away forever that day. One has lived if one has loved. There are times when I find this infinitely hard to believe. Most days I feel that I am alive. And that love is the reason for that.
