『7人の知的障害者がヒマラヤに挑んだ物語』 ヒマラヤの８０００ｍ峰・アンナプルナ。 そのベースキャンプ（４２００ｍ）への６日間。 彼らを待ち受けていたのは、想像をはるかに超えたヒマラヤの厳しい自然でした。 次々とおそいかかる試練に７人はどう立ち向かうのか、そこには仲間たちとの強いきずながありました。 夢はかなう。どんなに障害がおもくても。 『ヒマラヤに挑戦した７人の知的障害者が教えてくれた』 ヒマラヤに挑戦する２年半前、一人の知的障害者から「僕たちもエベレストに登れますか」と聞かれた。そして翌月、彼らは山岳部を作った。その時から始まったヒマラヤへの挑戦。 作品はドキュメンタリーだけれどナレーションはない。また、音楽は言葉のないオリジナルの歌を使った。この作品では、知的障害を持つ人をできる限り何のフィルターも通さず見て欲しい。何の先入観も持たずに感じて欲しい。 編集していた１０ヵ月の間、この問いと向き合った。そして生まれたのがこの作品だ。 試写会で「こんなに障害の重い人がヒマラヤに登れるのだろうかと思った。ところが日に日にみんなが変化していく。そして最後には誰が障害者か健常者かの区別はなくなった。みんな一人の人間なんだ」という感想が寄せられた。見た人が何を感じ、そこから何を発見するのか自由だ。できれば、７人の姿からこれまでとは違う知的障害者への眼差しを見つけて欲しい。 監督 小川道幸 七人の知的障害者：有光一仁／伊藤恭介／川西秀樹／豊田瑛一／菜嶋亮太／野々口文彦／山田浩 プロデューサー：林淑美 支援者：明石雅光／太田秀樹／北田徹／城戸美織／中村保博／山本俊作 音楽：松田美緒 撮影：折笠 貴 音響効果：増子 彰 音楽録音：森 崇 映像技術：居川貴実晃 サウンドミキサー：達林正幸 制作協力：シャングリラツアー／ラグー・カドゲ／大河原由紀子／グループアンダリン／東京サウンドプロダクション／スタジオWELT 制作・著作：パンジーメディア／社会福祉法人創思苑
