As an uneducated\, indigenous woman and a Buddhist in a Hindu kingdom\, Pasang’s dream to scale the legendary mountain pits her against family\, foreign climbers\, her own government\, and nature itself. Her determined pursuit of Everest plays out within the context of her nation’s quest for democracy and the emergence of the commercial climbing industry. As told by the Nepalis who knew her\, by some of the world’s most notable alpinists\, and by Pasang herself\, her historic quest would transfix her country and uplift a new generation’s belief in its possibilities. \n  \n“…this film is a poignant example of the many untold tales of female heroism that are frequently under-recognized. ‘Pasang: In The Shadow of Everest’ is an inspiring story that deserves the attention and recognition of international audiences.” – Britni Rillera\, Reel News Daily \n  \nAwards: 12 wins \nWinner\, Best Feature Mountain Culture\, Banff Mountain Film and Book Festival\, 2022\nWinner\, Audience Award\, BendFilm Festival\, 2022\nWinner\, Honorary Mention\, Documentary Feature\, Bentonville Film Festival\, 2022\nWinner\, Best Culture and Nature Film\, Bilbao Mendi Film Festival\, 2022\nWinner\, Best Spirit Award\, Coast Film Festival\, 2022\nWinner\, Best Mountain\, Kendal Mountain Film Festival\, 2022\nWinner\, AICEF Prize for Cross Cultural Filmmaking\, Middlebury New Filmmakers Festival\, 2022\nWinner\, Audience Award\, Middlebury New Filmmakers Festival\, 2022\nWinner\, Clio Visualizing History Prize for the Advancement of Women in Film\, Middlebury New Filmmakers Festival\, 2022\nWinner\, Charlie Fowler Best Adventure Film Award\, Mountain Film Festival\, 2022\nWinner\, Audience Award\, Nevada City Film Festival\, US\, 2022\nWinner\, Wild Spirit Award\, New York Wild Film Festival\, 2023\nJury Special Mention\, Vancouver International Mountain Film Festival\, 2023 \n  \n \n\n  \nTickets are $12 (service fees/HST included in price). \n\nOnline tickets sold via Ticketpro.\nBy phone at 1-888-655-9090 (Ticketpro).\nFor in-person sales\, Box office is located at Five Points Theatre\, 1 Dunlop Street West.
