This is a trailer for an upcoming indie mountain climbing thriller from the Netherlands titled Magic Mountains. The movie comes from writer and director Urszula Antoniak (Nothing Personal, Code Blue, and Beyond Words).
The film has a mysterious setup, and it looks like it’ll be interesting to watch unfold. The story follows a wealthy, successful, and famous writer named Lex (Thomas Ryckewaert). He may have a lot of things, but one thing he doesn’t have is peace of mind since his girlfriend Hannah (Hannah Hoekstra) left him years ago. “Looking to achieve closure on their relationship, Lex asks Hannah to go with him to the mountains for a last climb together. But Voytek, their professional mountain guide, senses that Lex may be unstable and refuses to leave Hannah alone with him.”
The tone of the film… there’s something dark and sinister brewing and the trailer certainly caught my attention. Magic Mountains is currently available in US theaters and VOD on Apple TV on May 14th, 2021.
