# PROGRAM

### **K2: Chasing Shadows**

**Directors:** David Arnaud & Hugo Clouzeau – **66 min**  
Benjamin Védrines, one of the world’s best alpinists, dreams of taking on the “savage mountain” — K2 (8611m). After a serious accident during his first attempt, he returns with even greater determination and a bold plan: to climb K2 in one day, without supplemental oxygen, and paraglide down from the summit. A gripping and thought-provoking film about ambition, risk, and the true meaning of success in the high mountains.

### **Just a Climber**

**Director:** Jérôme Tanon – **26 min**  
Watching **Solenne Piret** climb is pure inspiration. Born without a right hand, she has always forged her own path on the wall. A four-time world champion, she now takes on a new challenge: leading the legendary **Grand Capucin** in the Mont Blanc range, while placing her own protection. A moving story of determination and grace in the vertical world.

### **Better Up There**

**Director:** Mathis Dumas – **45 min**  
The mountains give us so much — but they can take everything away in an instant. This intimate portrait of **Léo Slemett** , freeride world champion, explores the highs and lows of his journey: from childhood dreams to tragedy, resilience, and rebirth. A powerful lesson in passion and perseverance, told through stunning cinematography.

### **Zahir**

**Director:** Julien Nadiras – **30 min**  
Climbers **Katherine Choong** and **Eline Le Menestrel** take on one of the hardest big-wall routes in the Swiss Alps: _Zahir_. With several pitches graded 8a and 8b, the challenge is already huge — and they make it even greater by travelling only by bike. A joyful and inspiring film that celebrates adventure, friendship, and sustainable exploration.
