Berg follows the stories of the stones, rocks and peaks of a vast mountain landscape. Stark black and white images and a minimalistic ambient soundtrack draws you into a vibrant, cinematic experience.

Just as all sense of scale is lost amidst this raw and primal trip across the panorama of the mountains, we see three human figures – hikers tackling the peak.

Following their journey throughout the film, against rising and hanging fog, thunderstorm and falling rain, we experience first-hand the overwhelming power of nature and the insignificance of humanity within it.
