Everest: The Other Side

Upcoming documentary Everest: The Other Side focuses on the relationship between elite ski mountaineers Jim Morrison and Hilaree Nelson. Bound by shared ambition and love, the pair attempts to climb and ski the North Face of Mount Everest. This route is considered the most perilous ascent on the mountain and a highly sought-after ski line that no one has previously descended on skis.

The film is directed by Jimmy Chin and Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi, who have collaborated on seven previous projects starting with Free Solo in 2018 and continuing through Lost in the Jungle in 2025. This production is a joint effort between Little Monster Films and National Geographic Documentary Films. The screenplay was written by Chin and Vasarhelyi alongside Lindsey Ferrentino. The cast features Nelson and Morrison as themselves, with Chin and Vasarhelyi also appearing in the film. The movie has a runtime of 115 minutes.
