After his successful winter ascent to Nanga Parbat in 2016 with Simone Moro and Ali Sadpara, the following year, Alex Txikon travels to the Himalayas to try the first winter ascent to Everest without artificial oxygen. No one has ever done it without artificial oxygen before. The team reaches Camp 4 at  South Col (7950m), but, unable to set up a tent due to strong winds, were forced back to Camp 3, where they tried to wait for the storm to subside. Unfortunately, it never did, forcing them to retreat. Up to date, Everest has not been climbed at all in full winter since the first winter ascent by Polish mountaineers Cichy and Wielicki in 1980, and is still yet to see a winter ascent without bottled oxygen.

A team of 20 elite Nepali climbers venture into the Death Zone of Mount Everest to restore their sacred mountain and the contaminated water source of 1.3 billion people. They ascend the highest point on the planet to the 150 bodies of deceased climbers and 100,000 pounds of rubbish that remain on the high slopes of Everest. This is the self-documented story of their life-threatening journey.

Standing at a jaw-dropping 29,035 feet above sea level, Mount Everest is a climber's trophy that many risk their lives to conquer, including a new high-altitude helicopter rescue team led by Jeff Evans. 'Everest Air' follows the real-life adventures of Evans and his skilled team of Sherpas and helicopter pilots, providing a rare glimpse into the exhilarating encounters and unrivaled majesty of the mountain. Patrolling Everest's slopes from Base Camp to its Balcony, Evans and the Alpine Rescue Service team go higher and further than any group has gone before to aid climbers in need. With unprecedented access, 'Everest Air' captures the mountain's most fascinating stories, right from the front lines.

This film follows guide Ludovic Challeat and 9 climbers from Jura, France as they attempt to climb Makalu in the spring of 2008.
