Edurne captains an expedition with the objective of climbing Mt. Saipal (7,031 m). Next to her, there are four local women. They are from one of the most remote and unknown regions in Nepal, where women have lived marginalised for centuries. If Edurne can make it to the summit with Pabitra, Saraswoti, Laxmi and Sangita, it will serve as inspiration to all female locals, as well as Nepalese women. It will mean the beginning of a revolution that is necessary not only there, but in the entire world.
