K2 & The Invisible Footmen Trailers

K2 is widely seen as the world's harshest mountain. Yet many indigenous porters make a living in its extreme conditions, carrying provisions for foreign climbing expeditions. Often risking their lives, they receive minimal pay for their efforts. Against a backdrop of breathtaking natural beauty, this doc explores the courage and sacrifice of the men who call the 'Savage Mountain' their home.

Reviews
Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
fsquatrano I really liked it, I liked the way that the director used to underline the contrast between the "western" starts, super equipped with technical and expensive stuffs trying to summit after a long training, and the Pakistani guides who were going almost with slippers and no equipment at all, facing the same problems of the others but with no equipment at all, the alternation of the point of views was really interesting and the clash between the two faces of the same reality was evident and strong so I really liked the story and how it has been narrated. About the photography, scenes and so on i can just say that Iara Lee were able to capture the BEAUTY as a pure entity, the colours, the landscapes and the details were true beauty, in many points they were almost mystic, the purity of the mountains and their power was astonishing, I felt the "beauty" in those images so I enjoyed it also aesthetically and at the end it made me simpathyze with the Pakistani porters and made me want to go there and see the beautiful mountains.
