Bound To everest
When the earthquake hit Everest,
surviving was only the beginning.
At its core, Bound To Everest is about the journeys that shape us. It is a story of transformation; of how trauma can shatter one dream while revealing a deeper purpose in another.
In 2014, producer Michael Churton is at Everest Base Camp filming a sports documentary when the deadliest day in the mountain’s history unfolds. One year later, he returns to Everest to chronicle the intimate bond between Randall and Haley, a father and daughter pushing toward the highest altitudes on Earth.
After a month of trekking, training, and filming, disaster strikes. A catastrophic 7.8-magnitude earthquake in Nepal triggers a deadly avalanche that tears through Everest Base Camp. Hurricane-force winds hurl Churton into rocks as a nearby team member vanishes in a flash of white. At the same time, high on the mountain, Randall and Haley are roped-in traversing a glacier when the earthquake destroys their route and engulfs them in a whiteout. Stranded at Camp 2, Randall begins to suffer a life-threatening altitude illness, and Haley is forced to prove her strength in ways she never imagined.
