Bonington: Mountaineer tells the story of Sir Chris Bonington, the climber who led Britain's golden age of Himalayan mountaineering. From early Alpine ascents to the first climb of Annapurna's South Face and the expeditions that defined a generation, the film draws on a lifetime of expedition footage and Bonington's own reflections on triumph, loss, and the friendships forged on the world's highest peaks.

Why This Film Matters: Few figures shaped modern mountaineering like Chris Bonington, whose climbs pushed the limits of what was thought possible at altitude. This is an intimate portrait of a life spent in the mountains, and of the cost and the reward of chasing the summit.
