This is a film drama, apparently based on real events, that depicts a mountaineering accident. A husband and wife are climbing in the Tyrolean Alps when she slips and falls off a cliff. The husband exhausts himself trying to rescue her in a fierce storm and both are rescued by a mountain guide. The film was made by Tom Terriss, who made a short taking images from an earlier Polish feature film from 1930 shot in the Tatra Mountains titled 'Burza nad Zakopane'. In fact, although in theory the action takes place in the Tyrolean alps, the mountain guide (Domenico Gambino) is dressed with the typical costumes of the Polish highlanders from the Tatras (the Gorals). It's a mystery whether Tom Terriss used these images with permission.
"In this film of the 'Vagabond Adventure Series', Tom Terris takes us to New Zealand in a kind of travelogue film. We accompany a client and a mountain guide on a treacherous, icy trek across a glacier. At night they camp and the old man tells him how he lost his love in an accident fourty years ago during their honeymoon. In the morning the old man has disappeared, but client finally finds him in a cave admiring the body of his frozen lover, captured on ice. The film conveys a feeling that is rarely identified with travel films, and contains a tender, tragic note that is genuinely touching."
Released in 1939.
During an ascent of Canigou, a traveler falls into a precipice, his body rolling to the bottom of the abyss on the glistening snow of the glacier. The guide, still carrying the traveler's binoculars, is accused by his companions of having killed him in order to rob him. He takes refuge in the mountains, at the home of an old hermit who welcomes him into his cabin. While searching for pasture, the hermit discovers the traveler's body, whose satchel, still full of money, serves to prove his protégé's innocence. Faced with this evidence, the guides reinstate him in their ranks, and the good man returns to his wife and children.
