After watching this documentary we get a clear picture about the life of a Porter on the highest mountain in the world. I was really impressed by the dedication shown by Nathaniel to learn the Nepalese language perfectly and interacting with the locals throughout the whole film. The mood of this whole film was very motivating and also eye opening. Life is tough not for the wealthy but for such human beings who work so hard only to survive. Respect!

Feels like we actually spend days into the Himalayan porter lifestyle from the comfort of our home...really make us appreciate the life we are living...guaranteed increased Respect for everyone doing hard work for there family.

Not trying to diminish what Nathaniel did, but "white dude carries way too many bags up a hill for other white people who would rather pay someone to do it rather than tire themselves out" isn't really that interesting a story, even though almost 30 reviews would have you believe it is. The production values aren't much, in that a lot of it is shot inside a dimly lite hut, the sound is pretty rough with much of the outdoor sound being covered in wind noise, a wind sock apparently wasn't packed, so I'm guessing it was all camera or phone microphone.

It is an interesting insight into the local world of porters though so it definitely gets merit points for that.
