The Holy Mountain
Der heilige Berg
1926 · DE
Directed by Arnold Fanck
A dancer, two climbers, a misunderstanding, and an Alpine night that kills. Arnold Fanck shot it on real ice with cameramen who could ski, and the storm on the face is where the mountain film begins as a genre, with the mountain as the moral authority. Leni Riefenstahl's first film, as the dancer; Luis Trenker is the mountaineer. Ufa, 1926.
