Nimsdai (Nims ) Purja was born poor in Nepal. He joined the British army Ghurka regiment where he served for six years before joining the elite SBS where he served a further ten years. That would be plenty for most, but not Nims. After his first mountaineering experience in 2014 he decided to climb 14 of the World's highest and most dangerous peaks. This feat had been achieved before but took eight years to complete. Nims Purja attempted it in 7 months! A single climbing season.
This astounding attempt is documented in this one of a kind movie. Of course the scenery is spectacular but it's eclipsed by the bravery and good hearted dynamism of Nimsdai (Nims ) Purja, a real life superhero.

Amazing...
"14 Peaks: Nothing Is Impossible" is a Documentary in which we watch Nirmal Purja, a Nepali mountaineer trying the impossible task of summit all the 14, 8,000-meter peaks in just seven months.
I liked this documentary very much because it was very interesting, it had a nice plot and the way we followed Nirmal Purja on his quest was very good. The direction which was made by Torquil Jones was also very good since he presented very well Nirmal Purja, his history and his life in general, something that made possible for us to better understand him as a person and even relate to him at some moments. In addition to this, Nirmal Purja was outstanding and what he tried to achieve was simply impossible, that's why he named it project possible. In conclusion, I have to say that "14 Peaks: Nothing Is Impossible" is an amazing documentary and I highly recommend everyone to watch it.
Not that interesting
First of all, this docu has some major pacing issues. There are basicly 3 storylines. The resques, the climbs and the backstory. The climbs are as interesting as you can make them. Slow methodical walking through deep snow, and honestly it's not that interesting. So we're left with some backstory, wich was quite bland. And the resque missions, wich were honestly the most intersting part. But sadly, these resque moments are only present for 2 brief moments. So the docu mainly just bounces back and forth between boring walking, and a boring family. All acompanied with forced insparational backstories and narriation. All in all, I was looking at the clock multiple times. Just waiting for it to be over.
4/10: boring.
