In 2025, Célia is at the top of her game. A high-level ski mountaineer, she is aiming for the 2026 Olympic Games, the goal of a lifetime. But when his selection escapes him in favor of a young competitor, everything changes.
This documentary follows the aftermath: the emptiness, the doubts, the anger, but also the reconstruction. Between mountains, competitions and personal projects, Célia reinvents her path and gives meaning to her passion.
More than a film about sport, it is the intimate story of a woman confronted with failure and her ability to get back up. An inspiring story about resilience, for anyone who has ever seen their dreams slip away and decided to reinvent them.
