U | 1h 40 min | Drama | 2005

A mountain isn’t for the faint-hearted: It rewards only the brave. Those who dare its rarified heights can awaken to their real selves because they see and hear farther, clearer. Johanna Spyri’s 19th-century novel “Heidi” is about how some learn that lesson better than others. For over a century, it has inspired dozens of literary and artistic adaptations, one of the most endearing being Paul Marcus’s film of the same name.
