Everest, the highest mountain peak on Earth, is a captivating and mysterious challenge that people continue to conquer time and again. But what does Everest mean to those who live at its base and guide daring climbers to the summit? In the “Everest One“ documentary, five experienced Nepali mountain guides share their personal stories and reflections on the role of Everest in the life of their country and its people. From generations of families whose lives are inextricably linked to this legendary mountain, to young summiteers, each of them pours a piece of their soul into the ascent of Everest. Viewers will witness not only the thrilling footage of the climbing process, but will also learn about the profound cultural and spiritual significance that Everest holds for Nepalese people. The film unveils the experiences and emotions of these courageous individuals as they bid farewell to expeditions from the base camp, and welcome them back upon their return from the height of 8,848 meters. Through the personal stories, emotional journeys, and unique knowledge of the mountain guides, “Everest One“ allows us to see the Everest phenomenon in a new light – not just as the highest peak in the world, but as an integral part of the life and culture of Nepal. This film is a tribute to the people whose destinies are inextricably linked to the highest point on the planet. #everest #everest2024 #documentary
