This is a film that goes to the heart and muscle of flight and photography. A light single-engine aircraft and one pilot/cameraman were to cover the continent of South America, given a mandate to fly into areas so remote they would be the first images recorded there. By all accounts, it was a monumental task. After a full year's worth of traveling and fiming, legendary aerial cinematographer Robert Fulton III had flown over just about every peak, river, glacier, volcano and jungle of the Andes. Each drop of fuel, each inch of celluloid, and every knot of wind becoming part of the calculus - and the Andes under our feet.
