In Afghanistan’s Bamyan province, young skiers from different ethnic groups come together on snowy slopes, led by coach Alishah Farhang. With modest equipment and wooden skis, they discover joy, unity, and meaning through sport. After dramatic events unfold in the country, their lives are turned upside down — but the lessons from the mountains continue to guide them.

An inspiring story of athlete Nikola Kalistrin, who sets a new standard in mountain sports by traversing 30 peaks in the rugged and majestic Pirin range in just 10 hours.
Across steep ridgelines and rocky terrain, covering 44 kilometers and over 4,300 meters of elevation gain, Nikola completes this epic route on skis and on foot.
The film reveals the endurance, determination, and deep connection to his hometown, nestled at the foot of this untamed mountain.

Near the summit of Aiguille du Midi, at 3,842 meters above sea level, surrounded by a sea of mountains, stands the 50-meter granite monolith known as Gendarme des Cosmiques.
For 30 years, it hosted only two climbing routes — Digital Crack (8a) and Arête des Cosmiques (8a).
That changed on August 10, 2022, when a new chapter in alpine climbing history was written.
