When Derrick Williams (Jason George) and Michael Harris (Ned Vaughn) suddenly find themselves cast as local heroes, they are given the chance of a lifetime: to climb one of the most difficult mountains in the Andes. The two young men are forced to work together despite vastly different belief systems and personalities, giving rise to complications and disputes along the way. Derrick is a bitter, non-believing daredevil, while Michael is a devout Christian, who always opts for the safer route. Dabney Coleman (DOMINO), Todd Bridges (DIFF'RENT STROKES), and Clifton Davis (AMEN) round out the supporting cast of this fast-paced Christian film. [More]

When most movies are selling it loud and fast, this one sneaks in a message that seems revolutionary for its quiet confidence that you can't make it to the top without something to believe in.

... offers a realistic view of the world that may surprise people who haven't seen a Christian film lately.

Thankfully this is a far cry from apocolyptic nonsense like Left Behind, and while the religion can get thick, it's not generally the focus of the film.
