- Synopsis:
Brad Washburn was the greatest aerial mountain photographer of all time. More than eighty years after he first photographed Denali, Alaska from the air, climbing buddies Renan Ozturk and Freddie Wilkinson look at some of Washburn's images and have a crazy idea: rather than go up, their dream is to go sideways - across the range's most forbidding peaks, the Moose's Tooth massif. While the climbing action unfolds, Washburn's own incredible story comes to life through stunning archivals and recreations. Filmed over a period of five years, 'The Sanctity of Space' brings together visual elements of the highest order - from Washburn and Ansel Adams's stunning large format black and white photographs to state-of-the-art helicopter cinematography to space photography - with an unforgettable story spanning generations. It's both a white-knuckle adventure tale, and a celebration of the spirit of exploration. - Actors:

Nice idea - The Sanctity of Space review by Other Worlds
The aerial photography , both historical and contemporary , is amazing. It alone is worth watching this movie for. Unfortunately that is really the only reason to watch the movie.
It is structured as two different stories with each tale being told alternately with the other. The stories don't really reinforce each other , however, and each time you leave one story to join the other the experience is about as seamless as a manual gear change without benefit of the clutch. If the filmmaker had constructed the movie as a two stories each told without interruption it might have worked. As it is it does feel overly long, which is a pity because the photography is fantastic.

aerial photography - The Sanctity of Space review by MC
Brilliant film: both in terms of the quality of the photography and the close filming of demanding ice climbing.
