Meru (film)
''Meru'' is a 2015 documentary film chronicling the first ascent of the "Shark's Fin" route on Meru Peak in the Indian Himalayas. It was co-directed by married couple Jimmy Chin and Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi and won the U.S. Audience Documentary Award at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival. ==Premise== After attempting but failing to summit Meru in 2008, Conrad Anker, Jimmy Chin, and Renan Ozturk return to the mountain in order to conquer its peak – a 4,000 foot wall known as the "Shark's Fin". In addition to climbing, the men also documented their ascent. "You know, I'm always a climber first," said Chin on balancing climbing with filmmaking. "I'm always thinking about the safety of myself and the team. And I make that evaluation before I take the camera out." The film is a mixture of footage that chronicles both attempts (the failed 2008 and the successful 2011) while weaving a narrative about the trials and tribulations of the three climbers. The second attempt requires each of the men to face down their demons in an attempt to reclaim a part of themselves. After suffering a horrific accident while filming on location with Mr. Chin, Mr. Ozturk has a mere five months of a recovery time before the beginning of the second attempt. He has to battle thru some gruesome injuries that almost killed him. Four days after Mr. Ozturk's accident, Mr. Chin returns to the filming location to finish but is caught in a catastrophic avalanche that he somehow miraculously survives with barely a scratch. Finally, Mr. Anker is left to wrestle with the dream of his mentor coming to fruition and the loss of both him and his climbing partner many years ago.
