The Mountain Within

Synopsis

The Mountain Within provides a powerful insight into the emotional and physical journeys of a group of seven adults with disabilities as they take on one of the most feared and revered mountains - Mount Kilimanjaro. In doing so, they show us that at the end of the day we all face the same challenges and it is often our hearts and minds rather than our bodies that limit us.
