K2 & The Invisible Footmen
Overview
K2 is widely seen as the world's harshest mountain. Yet many indigenous porters make a living in its extreme conditions, carrying provisions for foreign climbing expeditions. Often risking their lives, they receive minimal pay for their efforts. Against a backdrop of breathtaking natural beauty, this doc explores the courage and sacrifice of the men who call the 'Savage Mountain' their home.

Peter McGinn (Rated: 9)
This is a pretty good documentary. It is refreshing to get the perspective from people other than the western climbers, and other than the sherpas as far as that goes, since this follows porters from Pakistan rather than the higher paid sherpas of Tibet. So it involves trekking rather than the climb...
