Mountains

Based on real events. In 1972, a South American football team was flying to Chile when the plane crashed in the Andes. On the snow-capped mountains in winter, due to lack of food, they had to live on the corpses of their dead relatives and friends until 72 days later, two of them crossed the mountains to find rescue.

The sense of reality and despair in Alive is quite similar to the previous German mountaineering film "North Wall". The only difference is that 16 people were rescued in the end, which makes people feel that there is hope as long as they are strong enough.

In the play Nandu, I climbed to the top of the mountain with all the hardships. I thought I could see the verdant valleys of Chile. Unexpectedly, what I saw was the endless snow-capped mountains... I and Enze climbed the rice pile back then, always thinking of the next one. The mountain slope is past the glacier, and finally reached it after climbing to vomit blood. Very proud. Probably because no one else has climbed to such a deep place (the truth is almost the same), we finally have a taste of the true face of the glacier. As a result, when I returned to Beijing and searched with google earth, I found that I didn't even climb one-thousandth of the glacier...not to mention that it was just a trivial corner of the Himalayas.

Mountains-really hard to conquer by human foot power!
