Mission Everest – The Legend of Sherpa Jangbu

In the spring of 2019, 14 members from the SSI Mt Everest Team went to summit the highest mountain in the world. Unfortunately, two never came back. The film follows the journey of two other climbers in the team. Jangbu Sherpa, a mountaineering guide with 18 years experience in the Himalayas, and his client Karma Tenzing, a social entrepreneur with no mountaineering experience or training. Despite having lost many friends and family in the Himalayas, 15-time Everest summiteer Jangbu has to continue climbing in order to support his family. As their journey continues, the two face multiple challenges and have to make few last minute decisions to avoid serious obstacles. Overcrowding on Everest was a harsh reality in 2019, and Jangbu and Karma had no way but to deal with it to complete their mission.
