The
history of mountaneeiring has been largely written at the bottom
of the Matterhorn. But it has been a drama since the beginning,
for the four dead during the first ascent in July 1865, that contributed
to forging its legend.
A
legend that, maybe, would not exist without the cinema. We watch
at some fragments of exceptional documents, like, for example,
the images of a film from 1901 (one of the oldest ones in Swiss
cinema), of which a copy was found by chance in a cupboard (the
original is laying at the bottom of the Atlantic together with
its owner).
The
Matternhorn and the cinema make a true love story….
DIRECTOR

les Jumelles, is his second opera.
