It was 1996. Six Indian climbers set out to conquer Mount Everest. Caught in a storm, three of them decided to turn back while the others continued on their way at the risk of their lives. One of them, "Green Boots", has become a landmark for climbers who climb the mountain. The remains lie in the "death zone" of Everest, at an altitude of nearly 8,460 meters on the north face of the mountain. India therefore launches a mission to try to repatriate the body of "Green Boots", but the task promises to be perilous because of the climatic conditions.
