Wall of Death

Brief Summary

Giant ibex lock horns in a ritual battle to the death. By nightfall, the victor will fall prey to the cunning of leopards; their young will be hunted by gangs of wolves and hyenas. And for those that somehow manage to survive this gauntlet of predation, the fiercest enemy of all is the “Wall of Death.” A terrifying, vertical wall rises up from the waters of the Dead Sea. Sheer rock cliffs and jagged precipices loom over the barren Judean Desert in the land of the Bible. High in the craggy cliffs is a stark world of vivid contrasts - a treacherous lifeline that offers both life and death. Those who seek shelter here risk some of nature’s deadliest assaults, including gangs of hyenas, wolves and ambushing leopards, along with earthquakes that can send even the mightiest creature tumbling into the abyss. Our film follows the terrific and brutal struggles of survival in this savage home along the wall. It is an ever-shifting battlefield where both predator and prey fall victim to nature’s whims. To survive, each creature must prove its mettle - whether it’s negotiating treacherous paths down sheer cliffs or fleeing from predators. Which animal wins and which animal loses is not just a matter of brains versus brawn; sometimes sheer courage, anatomical advantages or just pure luck can win you points – until the next round. Wall of Death is a remarkable tale of survival set against one of the most brutal and beautiful landscapes on the planet. Dramatic interaction among ibex, wolves and hyenas (including rare footage of the area’s last surviving pair of leopards) is taken up a notch when nature unleashes its fury in a series of devastating flash floods and earthquakes.
