First on Everest
Gerald Salmina, 2010
Synopsis
In 2010, an expedition to Mount Everest goes on a quest to discover whether or not Brits Mallory and Irvine stood atop the highest mountain on Earth all the way back in 1924. The expedition back then ended in tragedy – and the film work on Everest was also ill fated in 2010. First on Everest is a complex documentary with very interesting findings.
