Documentary Feature by Eric Becker
USA • 2018 • 78 min.
Saturday, December 8, 2018 • 7 p.m. at Falmouth Academy
ABOUT THE FILM
In 1965 Jim Whittaker led Robert Kennedy on the first ascent of a remote
mountain in the Yukon named after JFK. Fifty years later, their sons
revisit the site of the iconic climb to learn more about the endeavor
that shaped their families. Return to Mount Kennedy spans generations,
reminding how every trail connects through the enduring friendships
built in the mountains. Featuring original instrumentals by Eddie Vedder
and never before seen footage of the climb, the film sits at the
intersection of politics, human rights, environmentalism, and adventure.
