The 1 hour and 36 minute movie by Jennifer Peedom takes the viewer into the world of life risking struggles, the harsh Everest peaks and the awe-inspiring scenery of life on the mountain. Sherpa is a movie that blends the harsh reality of the Sherpa life against the awe inspiring beauty of Mount Everest.
