## Synopsis

The Epic of Everest is a 1924 documentary about the Mallory and Irvine Mount Everest expedition. The publicity surrounding the film provoked a diplomatic incident following its 1924 release, known as the "Affair of the Dancing Lamas", that delayed future expeditions and may have destabilized the Tibetan government.
