The documentary is about Project Possible, a plan by Nepali high altitude climber Nirmal Purja to climb all of the world's 14 highest peaks with an altitude greater than 8000m (called eight-thousanders) inside 7 months (i.e. from late spring to late summer, before the winter season begins).

My quick rating - 8.0/10. I have always found mountain climbing fascinating and especially about the world's highest summits. Why not try to climb them all (over 8KM/ 26K Ft)? Oh, and do so in less than a year. Some absolutely extraordinary footage in this flick. Awe-inspiring how Nirmal Purja, effortlessly, well minus once rolling down a mountain, climbs to the peaks of each mountain that we mortals all just hear about, like it is all in a day's work. I think how this plays out as so matter-of-fact is why I am not keeping it for my collection. Yes, it is great and truly amazing, but I couldn't see watching it again. If you have any interest in mountain climbing or just incredible views from snow-topped mountains, then this is definitely for you, but it doesn't really surpass the mountains of footage National Geographic has on a continuous basis. I won't give away the ending or anything, but he does let the audience know to stay tuned for his next challenge.
