520    Four world-class alpinists including National Geographic's
       Explorer of the Year Gerlinde Kaltenbrunner team up in a 
       dangerous foray of high altitude mountaineering in the 
       breathtaking documentary K2: Siren of the Himalayas. The 
       film follows an attempt to reach the summit of the world's
       most challenging peak on the 100-year anniversary of the 
       Duke of Abruzzi's landmark K2 expedition. K2 also explores
       the history and geography of the legendary Karakoram 
       Mountain Range, while contemplating the risks, rewards and
       personal nature of exploration in an age when there are 
       few blank spots left on the map. The second highest peak 
       on Earth at 8,611 meters, K2 is also one of the most 
       dangerous mountains to climb: for every four people who 
       have reached the summit, one person has died trying. As 
       Ernest Hardy wrote in The Village Voice, "K2 offers great 
       beauty while capturing something of what pulls the 
       adventurous to try to reach the world's second highest 
       peak." "As thrilling as any Hollywood summer blockbuster, 
       with real-life plot twists of death, unexpected heroism, 
       and surprise endings...a must-see!" - The Village Voice. 
       "Beautiful mountaineering film...an account of one modern 
       expedition that draws fruitfully upon the lore of 
       another." - The Hollywood Reporter. 
       "Astonishing...captures courage, hardship and at times 
       defeat, but above all documents the mountain itself, in 
       all its staggering majesty." - Film Journal.
