Switzerland is a true paradise for multi-pitch climbing, as well as the country where Cedric Lachat was born and raised. Through his unique sense of humor and unbridled enthusiasm, experience the beauty and awe of five iconic peaks and mountain ranges: the Eiger, Gastlosen, Wendenstöcke, Lauterbrunnen, and Rätikon. In addition to footage of hard climbing (8a and up), the first ascensionists talk about the changes in gear and climbing over time, from traditional mountaineering to modern sport climbing.
Himself
Human multitool: French Mathis Dumas belongs to a new generation of alpine all-rounders. Out braving the elements on skis, on rope or with ice axes, his work has just begun: Being a professional outdoor photographer, the athlete and mountain guide has chosen a profession which demands high athletic, social and creative skills all at the same time. Usually his photo motif takes center stage – until now. We follow Mathis to his dream shot – the first attempt of an exposed highline in the heart of the Mont Blanc massif.
