Today I watched this movie:
Bethany had told me how good it was, so considering that it was Sunday and I was sick, I decided to check it out. Figuring it was just another “climbing” movie – but with blind people. Climbing movies dont tend to thrill me so I was not expecting much. I was completely wrong! It was way more than just a climbing movie.
First of all a BLIND German lady goes to Tibet, (by herself) and opens a school for the blind. Then, the school kids read and learn about a guy who climbed everest blind and get inspired to do something similar. The lady who runs the school contacts this fellow and they decide to organize a expedition. Crazy. The movie is one of the best I have ever seen when it comes to the interpersonal aspects of a expedition. Anyways just watch it. It is on netflix for a limited time…
