The older we get, the more we start thinking about what we do in life.
As a skier, when he was 20 years old, all Thibaud cared about was shredding the park. But a couple of years later, he started wondering 'why'.
Why skiing, why take the risk, why are we living this life?
Follow Thibaud Duchosal into some of the wildest places on earth, looking for the answers he seeks. He will soon understand that there are no such answers because what matters is not the finish line but the journey to get there.

Director, Laurent Jamet
Laurent Jamet was born in Paris in the mid 80s. From a young age he was attracted by cinema. It was during a trip to New Zealand that he met many professional skiers, and at the same time discovered the world of mountain films. He ended up being fascinated by skiers, their humility and their values. Gradually, he made his way into the closed world of the ski movie, and today is recognized by his peers for his high quality work.
