Summit
Morgan Bertacca (2013)
In the early morning of a middle summer day of 2013 the ultra-athlete Nico Valsesia reached the summit of Mont Blanc (4810m). But Nico wasn't an alpinist like the many others with him that morning. He conquered the highest summit of Europe after a no-stop riding almost 17h long, started the day before by bicycle from a beach in Genoa. The film also reviews several past record ascents to Mont Blanc, made by Kilian Jornet, Marino Giacometti, and Andrea Daprai.- 2013
