The film 40 Days at Base Camp is a documentary about a typical season on Everest; it’s making the rounds on the upcoming Banff Mountain Film Festival. From the film’s producers:

40 DAYS AT BASE CAMP provides a modern take on the transformation of Everest from what was once a revered, sacred space to the mountain theme park it is sadly becoming.

And it’s about to get even more theme-parky - the director has been commissioned to return to Everest the following season to shoot eight episodes for a reality TV show. If they bring over the cast of Horders they could get a lot of that mountain trash cleaned up.
