In 2016, skier Jeremy Heitz made a list of his most iconic descents in the Alps, featuring technical skiing and high speed. This feat represents a complete rethinking of classic downhill skiing and a move to a whole new level of freeriding.
The documentary follows Jeremy and his trusted mountain partner Sam Antamathon as they search for places to ski the highest mountain ranges. From the Andes to the Karakoram and the range in between, Sam and Jeremy have spent the last few years trying to expand their definition of ‘freeride’. This journey has been life-changing for them and poses as many questions as it answers.
The title of the film says it all: you either succeed or you return with nothing to show for the time you spent away from home and the risks you took.
