Beyond the Summit ends up falling short, pummeled by a script ridden with plain and commonplace dialogue that diminishes the story. [Full review in Spanish]

Ibon Cormenzana’s Beyond the Summit aims high: but unfortunately, like its hero, a couple of times, it falls flat.

Overall, there's a touching story on display, and I enjoyed the positive messages, which are a true strength. The film is visually pleasing, and while it's brief, its score is also touching. Performances are great, but I can't deny some scenes overstay their welcome or carry highly predictable outcomes. Seeking a slow-burning drama film? This is certainly worth grabbing a glass of wine and taking a peek.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
