Nanga Parbat - The Movie - نانگا پربت‎

This week, the movie NANGA PARBAT started in the cinemas in Germany. A great movie about the Messner brothers and their ascent to the Nanga Parbat  -  نانگا پربت‎  -  in 1970.
Guenther Messner, 23 years old, died on the way back. Reinhold Messner came home with frozen fingers and toes, he was rescued by people of the Diamir Valley.

Last summer, I met Reinhold Messner  in his home country South Tyrol, Italy.
He is now 65 years old, lives with his family in his castle Juval. In the last years, he founded several museums in South Tyrol: MMM, the Messner Mountain Museums.
