The Ascent

Mandy Horvath’s goal to ascend Mt. Kilimanjaro isn’t just a climb; it’s a reckoning. A bilateral amputee attempting to crawl to Africa’s highest peak, Horvath’s journey is haunted by the mystery of the night she lost her legs. As she pushes her body to the absolute limit, she must confront a shattered past to reclaim her future. The Ascent is a raw exploration of the human spirit’s capacity to endure, heal and find the trust required to reach the summit.
