Summary In 1985, Laurent Chevallier went to film, with Bernard Prudhomme, a French expedition on Gasherbrum 2 (8,035 m), aiming for the first delta wing jump at 8,000 meters. 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.
