MOUNTAIN
In MOUNTAIN, we follow seven young idealists and a child in their care as they climb a mountain together to make a statement. They want to show the world that change is possible. They brave the elements, the thin air, and their own fears to achieve something great.
But when they reach the summit, disaster strikes. The weather turns. They become trapped, cut off from the outside world. No audience, no cameras, no Wi-Fi, no likes. Only them, together with the biting wind, the snow, the hunger, and the silence of the mountains. And their convictions. And that one fucking song in their heads. High on a hill was a lonely goatherd, layee odl, layee odl layee-oo.
Mountain is a compelling coming-of-age performance about idealism, doubt, and dreams, and the search for meaning in a world where everything seems to need to be visible to have value.
