This Western feat was only possible thanks to the painstaking work of the Himalayan porters. During the expedition, the director developed a friendship with one of them, "Little Karim", who quickly became "Mister Karim" by accompanying, with a few others, the members of the expedition to the top. Ten years later, Laurent Chevallier finds him. This film is more than the portrait of a man, it is the story of a family, a village, a population whose life has completely changed since the arrival of rich expeditions in the Himalayas.
