The film follows Nepalese mountaineer Nirmal Purja and his team as they attempt to climb all 14 8000m peaks within a record time of under 7 months.

This documentary explores Nepal’s deep connection to high-altitude mountaineering through the eyes of Nirmal “Nimsdai” Purja, a fearless, fun-loving Nepali climber on a quest he dubs “Project Possible” – to summit all 14 of the world’s 8,000-meter mountains in just seven months, breaking the previous record of seven years.

With a team of skilled Sherpas, he traverses Mount Everest, K2, and other iconic peaks through extreme weather, life-or-death decisions, and the emotional weight of his mother’s illness back home. 14 Peaks is a thrilling, action-packed story about courage, perseverance, and pushing the limits of human endurance.
