Watch The Beckoning Silence

The Beckoning Silence tells the tale of Joe Simpson, a mountaineer who is deeply ionate about his life's calling despite the act itself being among the most dangerous endeavors a person could take upon himself.

He reminisces of Toni Kurz, a master climber who faced serious trial and tribulation on a climb in 1936. While climbing to the peak of a mountain in the Alps, Toni Kurz and his three men faced extreme terror as individually Kurz's men were dying, eventually leaving himself as the only survivor of the treacherous climb. The Beckoning Silence is meant to encourage and instill a sense of bravery.
