Lhakpa Sherpa: Des sommets de bravoure

I loved this documentary, even though it was completely opposite of what I expected it to be.

I've been following Lhakpa's professional life before this documentary, but I didn't know the hardships she's been through. I cried so much and I am so happy to see the reward for all she has accomplished.

She is a lovely mother, fighter, smart and interesting story-teller. If I were to climb high mountains, I would definitely love to have her as my guide, and enjoy hearing amazing stories and life's simple truths told in an interesting way.

She is lucky to have such a lovely and beautiful daughters. I hope life gives them peace and health. They already have great support.

This is a beautiful, touching, very real story about a remarkably humble & determined woman. Her journey is often tough & calls for her to dig deep for the resources she needs for her & her family to survive; in doing so she discovers she thrives & conquers on those challenges. Her story is an inspiration for women of every circumstance, demonstrating that resourcefulness & sheer determination are necessary to transform one's existence. Lharkpa, you are amazing.🙏 The documentary itself, is excellently shot, in what must arguably be, the world's most beautiful location & is most sensitively allowed to unwind with her own personal narration. Inspirational story told excellently, job well done🙏

I really enjoyed this documentary because it gave an experience from a native Sherpa point of view. Not only that but aI really enjoyed this documentary because it gave an experience from a native Sherpa point of view. Not only that but a native Sherpa woman! Her goals, her accomplishments in the face of extreme prejudice and adversity is a true testament to the strength and amazing gift of the Sherpa. I've always been amazed when watching documents on Everest of the endurance and loyalty of the Sherpa. This documentary helped me to understand the mindset and drive of this amazing people. A must see for Everest fans.

Such an inspiring story . Very well directed and a sensitive portrayal of Lakhpa and her family. You get drawn in to the story from the get go. Here is a woman who is transported to an Alien land and the way she picks herself up is amazing! I loved the way her relationship with her two girls and the manner in which this has been portrayed.

The majestic Everest and the influence this mountain has on the Sherpas is well depicted.

I truly hope that this documentary will bring her fame and fortune that she so richly deserves.

At the end you tear up and hope that she continues to Climb and inspires many women to do so in her footsteps.

7.3 stars.

I was moved by this documentary. This woman, apparently some sort of Nepalese peasant girl, born in a cave, born a Sherpa. She explains the Sherpa girls, they are born with the name Sherpa and their first name is the day of the week, and she was born on a Wednesday, thus Lhakpa. And so with that tidbit of knowledge given to us, we embark on her most recent climb of Everest in 2022 with flashbacks over the past 20 years. This is her tenth climb. She is the only woman to climb Everest more than 6 times, according to Wikipedia. There are two women that have done it 6 times. The story is amazing. She seems to be a sound person with a lot of energy, a positive mental attitude, and two wonderful daughters. Her husband was an abusive man and she had to overcome that challenge as well. She really is a hero.

This is an emotional film for many reasons. The music evokes feelings of sympathy and joy. I highly suggest you check it out, just to get an idea of how some seemingly unknown and unfortunate person can be so successful in life and overcome so many challenges.
