Synopsis

Felicity: Great happiness, inner contentment, joy, bliss. This is what skier Pierre Hourticq is looking for, accompanied by his friends Jérémie Heitz and Victor De Le Rue, on the extreme slopes of the Mont-Blanc massif. But this quest is not won in advance. In the ‘first person’ mode of speech the mountain puts words to the complex relationship that unites it with humans. Fight against your own vices, listen and respect: but grace comes with conditions, she warns. Like a divinity, the mountain reveals its attractive ambivalence. That of a goddess, with only human errors to fear and the best of men to cherish. Under the sharp peaks of Chamonix, between rocks, snow and ice, Félicité delivers a concentration of emotional and individual wealth which is offered by the mountain to extreme skiers.
