Terror, destruction and death on the highest mountain in the world: this is a description that could summarise the dramatic experience of the only Italian expedition present at the foot of Everest, miraculously surviving the violent earthquake of 25 April 2015 and subsequently a huge avalanche. The film shows incredible images documenting one of the most catastrophic happenings in the last few years.
