Amir Bar-Lev's harrowing documentary The Last First: Winter K2 is one of the bleakest depictions of the world of extreme sports. It is terrifying to watch the story of how five climbers died on the notorious Nepalese mountain, not because of the trek itself but because of the avalanche of horrible decisions and abject negligence which led to their demise. An unusual documentary in that its surface-level subject matter acts as a metaphor for a score of contemporary social ills, The Last First is a surprising doc of uncompromising tension.
