Quentin Perez’s intimate documentary approach was built with participants living with mental health challenges, following a team as they set out to make an adventure film. The camera tracks their learning, the transfer of craft from seasoned professionals, and a shoot in the Hautes-Alpes at 2,800 metres. Part coming-of-age and part collective odyssey, the film listens to voices too often silenced, balancing doubt, humour and moving revelations. Textures of mountain light and close-up intimacy shape a tender, unsentimental portrait of creativity and resilience.
