A short documentary that continues the story of 'Touching the void'. The film tells what happened after Joe Simpson was found next to Siula Grande's base camp: how did his companions assisted him, how did they managed to take him to the Lima hospital without the assistance of a rescue team... Joe and Simon also speak about how Yates was criticised for cutting the rope by a misleading article in a national newspaper and how their friends and the climbing community responded. Simpson published an article in the climbing press shortly afterwards, and later wrote Touching the Void.
