It’s been a few years, so I don’t remember if it’s obvious from the beginning that he survived, but you could recut it so that it looks like he died in the attempt (only revealing the truth at the end), and that would be closest you could make to snuff film and not go to jail for it.

Absolutely terrifying - and excellent - horror flick.
I am a climber (though not a Climber), so the technical stuff just makes it extra spicy.

The most… let’s call it “memorable”… film I ever saw at the Toronto International Film Festival was “9 Songs”
A discussion on music, loneliness, Antarctica, and also unsimulated sex.
That was a remarkably awkward 70 minutes or so at a world famous film fest.

(And I used to *run* Gentoo. That’s what convinced me that I was not interested in Computer as such, but in using Computer to do things. May have correlated with me getting my first job, and my time becoming valuable to me)

I particularly enjoyed the “Spider” episode of From The Earth To The Moon.
No idea if that’s how Grumann worked in those days, and my experience is in much smaller companies doing smaller-scope projects, but the overall feel of “here’s how a spacecraft gets designed” feels right.

This may need more money than a simple “angel” can provide, and you may need a higher-tier investor. Perhaps some sort of “piss Christ”.
