Overview

63 years ago, two boys set out to climb Mont Blanc in the wintertime. Lost in a storm, they remained the mountain’s prisoners for nearly 10 days. Through archival images, I recreate their journey and the attempt to rescue them while revisiting the places in order to understand their story.
