| 520 | |a Sherpa Tenzing, the first to reach the summit of Mount Everest with Sir Edmund Hillary in 1953, came from the Nepalese village of Thami. Sherpas have since become famous as mountaineer guides, but little is known of their daily village lives and the fierce individualism that characterizes them. This film looks at the contrasting lives of three brothers from Thami. Purwa, a farmer, grows potatoes and herds yak; in his community, neighbors fight if their homes adjoin too closely and congregate only for occasions like weddings. Dorje, a Buddhist monk, believes involvement with religion means no one gives you orders; if he avoids sin and gains merit, he'll be reincarnated into a good life, but ultimately hopes to avoid the cycle of reincarnation by attaining permanent bliss. Mingma, an expedition guide, lives with his family in Kathmandu, where tourism has already brought rapid change to the sherpas' way of life. | ||
