En Solo (2022)

Having become popular in the 80s thanks to extraordinary personalities like Patrick Edlinger, "climbing" is a sport with strong emotions. Although faced with the fear of heights and falls, as well as pain, the climber nevertheless experiences a pleasure that pushes him to chain attempts and push his limits. Some even go so far as to dedicate their lives to this sport and experience the dangers to the extreme, going so far as to do without safety equipment, such as a rope, and climb "solo", alone on their cliff. . Why ? What is this mix that makes climbing such an addictive sport? What drives these athletes to take so many risks? A climber himself, Nils Martin questions an all-consuming passion by highlighting the experiences of other climbers, from beginners to advanced, to true legends.
