About me:

Jim Morrison and Hilaree Nelson fall in love and set a goal most people wouldn't dream of: climb the North Face of Mount Everest and ski back down. Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin direct this documentary, which premiered at Venice. Thin air, steep snow and a love story at 29,000 feet.

Who I'd like to meet:

Anyone who gets nervous on a ski lift and watches anyway.
