(36 mins) Alex Heitler, France, NZ Premiere.
An intimate mountain film told through the inner voice of a rider torn between fear and obsession. As he moves between high-stakes competitions and raw backcountry adventures, we witness a search for balance between adrenaline and family, ambition and peace. No interviews, no showboating — just one man’s honest dialogue with the mountains. A visual and emotional journey into what truly drives us. In the end, it’s not about the best ride — it’s about feeling fully alive.
