Elia Saikaly, the award-winning director whose core is travel and adventure, has attempted to climb Mount Everest seven times.
Two he got to the top, but during the other 5 he has faced avalanches, earthquakes and a series of other disastrous events that however allowed him to have hours and hours of incredible footage that he then mounted using the time-lapse effect.
The videos explore different phases, moments, difficulties and beauties of the climb.
From light to darkness, from the strange shapes of clouds to the wonderful brilliant constellations, from small tents to large camps.

A 2-minute journey that will leave you breathless.
