Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Cultural

The Eiger North Face was called 'Mordwand' (murder wall) in postwar Germany; this TV movie rode a wave of national obsession with heroic failure.

Trivia

Dieter Wedel later became infamous for Germany's biggest TV directing scandal—making this early work oddly prophetic about hubris.
