Kilimanjaro: Going for Broke plot

"Going For Broke"

Paul, David, Jamie and Pete are four experienced mountaineers. They challenge themselves to take the difficult route to the top of Africa's highest mountain, Kilimanjaro. The journey will be tough, as all four of them have experienced major tragedies that leave them severely disabled. For example, Paul can't move his body, David recovers from total paralysis, Jamie misses his arms and legs, and Pete struggles with a broken back, one kidney and calves as thin as a pencil. During the perilous journey, the climbers tell about their lives, pain, doubts and the joy that keeps them alive.

Solid.

Short and (too) brief documentary. More than a documentary, this is a kind of travel summary. A diary of first-hand images - without expensive drone footage. That's why it captures the vibe of such a trekking. The personal stories are only discussed briefly and are not explored in depth. On the other hand, it also prevents a too long documentary with too much of the same.
