    The line between Good and Evil

    The line between Good and Evil

    Ben Clark (2019)

    The Line Between Good and Evil traces the route of Hilaree Nelson, on her two-decade vision to summit and ski Papsura, an attractive mountain 21,165 ft in the Indian Himalaya. Papsura, the peak of evil, reigns over its nearest rival Dharmsura, the peak of good (21,148 ft.). The film follows Hilaree's journey from her first Indian Himalayan expedition in 1999 until 2017, and exposes the commitment to the line she would ski and the line she would have to walk for half her life to attempt it. This film is a harrowing account of the deepest commitment to the grips of dreams.
