The film's early 100% Rotten Tomatoes score and Sundance selection suggest Apple TV is betting on prestige documentary content to diversify beyond scripted originals. It also highlights growing tension in extreme mountaineering between traditional climbers, paying tourists and social-media influencers, a theme likely to resonate beyond the sport itself.
