A giant slalom race in the Swiss Alps One of the most accomplished freeriders and a former alpine skier, Jérémie Heitz, challenges Daron Rahlves for a head-to-head giant slalom race in big mountain terrain.

The 45-minute film tells the moving story of Léo Slemett, from his childhood to his rise in the world of skiing. He overcame adversity to pursue his dreams and push his limits. We discover the majestic snow-capped mountains of Chamonix and the incredible challenges Leo faced in his career. We also see how the loss of Estelle and Adèle shaped Léo's life, and how he learned to live with this pain and keep moving forward. This contradiction that high mountains represent for Léo is the central theme of the film.
