Daughters of Everest
Sunday, October 10, 2004, 4 pm, Meyer Auditorium
In 2000 the first-ever expedition of Sherpa women to climb Everest was organized, and this captivating documentary gives a close-up account of the trek. Told from a womanýs perspective rarely seen on Everest or off, the video is both a dramatic, inspiring Everest story and an absorbing portrait of the Sherpa community. United States / 2004 / 56 min. / video / Nepalese with English subtitles. This film is part of the 2004 D.C. Asian Pacific American Film Festival.
