Jeff Lowe’s Metanoia uses the Eiger as a backdrop for Jeff Lowe’s life story. For nine harrowing days in the winter of 1991, Jeff pieced together a nearly impossible route up the very center of the Eiger Nordwand. This is the story behind a climb – an act of imagination - that has become legendary.
Nineteen years have passed. Jeff’s extraordinary first ascent - Metanoia (a Greek word meaning a fundamental change of thinking: a transformative change of heart) has never been repeated. Ueli Steck wants to attempt the route that Men’s Journal called “unimaginable”. The film will weave Ueli’s cutting edge attempt into the fabric of Jeff’s life tapestry. American and international audiences are about to discover one man’s extraordinary grand circle that is completed in the shadows of the Wasatch Mountains of Utah.
