“Light of the Himalaya”

Alpine Documentation (), Michael Brown (USA) 71 min

A very moving story of: ´giving back where it counts`; from award-winning filmmaker Michael Brown. At the heart of the most formidable mountain range on earth, live gracious people who suffer from the highest rates of cataract blindness on the planet. A climbing team with Conrad Anker and Pete Athens joins eye surgeons from Nepal and America in hopes of making a difference. This spectacular film follows the doctors' work on the Himalayan Cataract Project all the way, and to the summit of a 21,000-foot Himalayan giant.
