Summary

Film Far Enough (official selection)

In 1996, Goran Kropp cycled from Sweden to Everest before summiting it completely self-supported. Twenty-eight years later, 22-year-old Jean Rouaux is taking up the mantle in his own way. His goal: Ama Dablam, in the heart of Nepal. His starting point: Chamonix. 11,500 km by bike, 80,000 meters of elevation gain. A long-distance journey of solitude, effort, and pushing his limits. What if the adventure lay not so much in the summit itself, but in the journey to reach it?

Travelling to the ends of the earth to experience great adventures has a clear carbon footprint. Younger generations have become aware of this and are changing their approach to travel, embracing sustainable modes of transportation as much as possible. Starting with the example of Jean Rouault, we will examine an awareness that is increasingly taking hold in people’s minds.

Our panel discussion features athletes, filmmakers and sustainability experts.

Film ‘Traverses en terre berbère
(15 minute extract)

Join Thomas Delfino, Cody Cirillo, and Matthew Tufts on an adventure in the heart of Morocco’s majestic High Atlas Mountains.

Between snow-capped peaks and arid deserts, they embark on a ski and splitboard expedition in search of breathtaking landscapes and authentic encounters with local Berber communities. This immersive experience is a reflection on time, travel, and our connection to nature, while celebrating the raw beauty of these mountains and the simplicity of traditional ways of life.

Our pick

Jean Rouaux (aka Jean Registre on Instagram) is astounding. This young man from Chamonix reconnects with the great myths of exploration. Could you imagine a more complete adventure? Leaving from his doorstep, relying solely on his own strength to climb a Himalayan peak… And accepting the unexpected with the stoicism of an old sage. Let yourself be swept away by Jean’s tribulations on his journey to Nepal!
