SYNOPSIS
In 1955, the world’s third highest mountain was climbed to within five metres of its summit. The expedition stopped just short in respect of local beliefs that a protective deity lived there. This film recounts the story of this landmark ascent and explores its cultural significance in the development of mountaineering, spotlighting the role of the fully-integrated Sherpa team and the contribution of working-class climber Joe Brown.
NOTE
We wanted not just to celebrate this historic ascent, but to look deeper at what made this expedition so important to mountaineering history.
[Adam Butterworth, Distributor]
