Rating: 3/4 -- Fanck kickstarted a genre and unwittingly helped give rise to a great and terrible talent, making The Holy Mountain a truly fascinating historical artifact indeed. Full Review

'Why is nature so beautiful to us?' a dancer (Leni Riefenstahl) asks; it's a question we still ponder, which is one reason the film continues to awe...

[T]he spectacular use of the Alpine settings and cinematic conceits such as dissolves and slo-mo, make for a surprisingly modern feel.

Product Description:

The pioneer of the "mountain film", a movie that takes place in an Alpine setting, Arnold Fanck's THE HOLY MOUNTAIN stars Leni Riefenstahl as Diotima, a dancer who travels to a small mountain village to find the man of her dreams. She finds a climber and a skier who are there to pursue their own idyllic dreams while navigating the danger and beauty of the mountains. Wonderful and bizarre, THE HOLY MOUNTAIN elevates its drama to a near mythic status.
