Return to Mount Kennedy
Synopsis
In 1965, Robert Kennedy was the first man to summit Mount Kennedy in the Yukon Territory, named in honor of his late brother. Leading that expedition was Jim Whitaker, the first American to summit Everest and original fulltime employee of REI. 50 years later, Jimâs sons Bob and Leif, along with Christopher Kennedy, decide to climb the mountain again in honor of their fathersâ joint accomplishment and unique friendship. Seattle-based filmmaker Eric Beckerâs touching documentary combines archival footageâincluding several Kennedy home moviesâwith interviews from Jim himself and those who them best as we follow three sons and the journey literally in their fathersâ footsteps. Eddie Vedder, a personal friend of Bobâs, writes original music for film that tailor shots of the expansive mountain ranges together in this wholesome story.
