A 1950 West German mountain film remake that launched Liselotte Pulver's career through studio-crafted alpine storytelling.
The aging Dr. Johannes Jensen still cannot come to terms with the fact that his wife died in an avalanche during a mountain hike they took together twenty years ago. When a young couple plans to climb the same mountain, Jensen fears that the incident might repeat itself. He tries in vain to dissuade them from their plan. When they get into trouble, Jensen manages to save them, sacrificing his own life in the process.
