19. FGA: The Dark Side of Mount Everest

Dreams that have become an obsession.

A visually captivating story of the rugged beauty of the Himalayas told from the rare perspective of the Sherpas, without whom no expedition could take place.

19-time Everest conqueror Mingma Tsiri Sherpa breaks his family's word and sets off on one last dangerous mission to “Mother Earth Goddess,” as Mount Everest is called in Nepali. He wants to cleanse the sacred mountain from the bodies of the Himalayists, for whom the conquest of the summit ended tragically.

It is a moving story of respect for nature, deep Buddhist spirituality and the value of human ambition, showing the exact path to the highest peak of the world.
