Narrated by Willem Defoe, through beautiful imagery and cinematography, the documentary showcases some of the tallest mountains around the globe. Mountain is one of the most breathtaking love letters ever written to the world’s highest peaks by today’s generation of mountaineering filmmakers. The movie is an homage to Sherpa guides, the true heroes and rockstars. Sherpa is essential viewing for all mountain lovers and anyone that hopes to climb Mount Everest someday. As the documentary was being shot, an ice avalanche killed 16 Sherpas and the narrative of the film switches to telling the story of the events that took place in the aftermath of the tragedy. While focusing on the Sherpa Phurba Tashi, a man who has climbed Mount Everest 21 times as he leads an expedition for a New Zealand company called Himex, the film explores the sacredness of mountains within Sherpa culture.
Sherpa is a 2015 documentary by Australian filmmaker Jennifer Peedom that was shot during the 2014 Mount Everest ice avalanche. See Also: Day Hikes and Easy Treks in Nepal for Beginners
