In the winter of 1986, André Georges crossed all of Zermatt's four thousands with the famous extreme mountaineer Erhard Loretan within three weeks. The documentary remembers the feat following two teams who climb these summits separately and in different stages. A rope team is formed by André Georges and Gerlinde Kaltenbrunner. The other consists of Simon Anthamatten and Felicitas Feller. The alpinists talk about their passion for mountains and about how alpine danger and rescue symbolize life itself. Breathtaking pictures and personal statements have you guess a dimension beyond human destiny.

Every day, Air Zermatt rescuers work on the Matterhorn massif. Rescue five climbers who have fallen into a crevasse, evacuate a lost cow on a mountain pasture, find a missing Japanese tourist and even drop models on the glacier for a publicity photo shoot, they succeed the impossible, often at the risk of their lives.

Matterhorn Calling is a documentary about alpinism that takes place in Matterhorn. It was directed by Marc Mühldorfer in 2015 and produced by KG Media Factory. It features Julian Beermann, Henny Seiffer, Reiner Taglinger, Kurt Lauber, Peter Zurniwen, Thomas Steber and others.

On the weekend of August 1, 2004, the Matterhorn is in full swing: 100 people are waiting in the Hörndlihütte at 3260 meters to climb the Matterhorn the next day. In Zermatt, the Japanese are ready at 05:30 to photograph the first ray of sunshine touching the top of the Matterhorn. And the saviors in the valley are alarmed. What's behind the fascination with the Matterhorn? A film by Frank Senn produced by the Swiss Television.

Fifth episode of the Japanese 'The great summits' series. In this episode, the team, guided by Simon Anthamatten, climbs first Breithorn as a preparation, and then Matterhorn through the normal Hornli Ridge Route. The Great Summits series introduces ten of the world's most famed mountains such as Mont Blanc and the Matterhorn in the European Alps and Mt. McKinley in Alaska. Guided by expert climbers, viewers can experience what it feels like to climb these mountains. Feel the same fear and excitement through the lens of a Steadicam.
