Event Description

Pasang Lhamu Sherpa, a selfmade indigenous woman, achieved the historic feat of becoming the first Nepali woman to conquer Everest in 1993. Her journey was marked by challenges from family, foreign climbers, government resistance, and nature. Pasang's journey unfolds against the backdrop of Nepal's democratic aspirations and the burgeoning commercial climbing industry. Through interviews with locals, alpinists, and Pasang herself, the documentary captures the historic ascent on April 22, 1993, a pivotal moment for Nepalese women that continues to inspire a new generation.
