Every year, over a thousand climbers try to reach the summit of Mount Everest, with the annual record for successful attempts currently standing at 633. But of that number, nearly half were Sherpas - the mountain's unsung heroes. Yet the Sherpa community has remained secretive about their nation, culture and experiences living in the shadow of the world's highest mountain. Now, for the first time, they open the door into their world. Without the expertise of the Sherpas, only the hardiest and most skilful climbers would succeed. Every day they risk their lives for the safety of others, yet they seek neither glory nor reward, preferring to stay in the background. Following the stories of four such Sherpas - Phurba, Ngima, Ngima Tenji and Gelu - this film reveals the reality of their daily lives, not just up the mountain, but with their families after they return home.

Why? This is what Project Mina tries to work out, creating more than just a climbing film – it’s a story about dedication, struggle, determination and finding your way, exploring the moments in-between the top-outs and trophies we’re so used to seeing.

When Dogs Fly tracks this untraditional family’s journey to make Whisper the world’s first wingsuit BASE-jumping dog.

각자 인생의 굴곡진 시련을 겪은 세 친구들. 이들은 세계 최고의 전문 산악인이다. 그들은 히말라야에서 가장 위험하고 난이도가 높은 봉우리인 메루의 샥스핀을 오르며 복잡한 과거, 내면의 악마, 그리고 자연이 주는 가장 큰 시련에 맞서 싸운다. '메루, 한계를 향한 열정'은 그들의 여정과 불가능해 보이는 탐험에 대한 이야기이다.

캘리포니아주에 위치한 요세미티 산맥은 한 해 300만 명이 넘는 관광객이 찾는 미국의 대표적인 국립공원이다. 하지만 세계에서 가장 큰 암석인 앨카피탄과 3,000미터가 넘는 암벽이 즐비한 이곳은 동시에 미국 등반가들의 성지이기도 하다. 1950년대부터 지금까지 무허가로 암벽을 오르는 등반가들은 한가로이 자연 경관을 바라보며 느긋한 휴가를 즐기려는 중산층 시민들과 경찰당국에겐 늘 눈엣가시였으며 아직도 그렇다. 50년대에 처음 이곳에 둥지를 튼 최초의 등반가들은 소비주의에 매몰된 사회에 반항하는 비트족이자 등반을 통해 대항문화공동체를 이뤄나간 반체제주의자들이었으며, 이런 전통은 아직도 후배 등반가들을 통해 지속되고 있다. 아카이브 영상을 발랄하고 자유자재로 편집한 장면들은 시종일관 웃음을 자아낸다. 최근 요세미티에서 베이스점프 중 사망해 많은 등반가들의 안타까움을 자아낸 전설적 등반가 딘 포터의 모습을 볼 수 있는 마지막 영화이기도 하다.
