"Journey to Everest" World Premiere
A David Kiern film and an Epiphany Documentary Films production.
Journey to Everest follows the adventures of a team of six American business people who travel to the Himalayas to trek to Everest Base Camp. On their way into the mountains to begin their ascent, they are bumped from a plane flight that crashes and kills 18 people. As their expedition unfolds and they struggle with their decision whether or not to continue on their trek, their faith comes to the fore as they experience the Hindu/Buddhist world of Kathmandu, Nepal, face the challenges of the Everest Region, and discover the depths of who they are as Christians and gain a new perspective on their purpose in life.
