Max Bonniot, Mathieu Maynadier, Sylvain Di Giacomo and Pierre Labbre, experienced mountaineers, follow a series of routes in the north face of the Meije (new route Eté Blizzard), in the west face of the pointe de Bonne-Pierre and in the north face of the Ailefroide Occidentale (opening of the Mouloudji variant).

Through the confidences of Michel Serres, renowned philosopher and unknown mountain climber, and also stories of climbers and mountaineers, we enter to a vertical world, unconventional, where the hostility of the high altitude and the passion of men coexist. What is the sense of mountaineering? Between philosophy, action, and self-discovery, the documentary takes us very far, to the very heart of mountaineering and asks the question that every climber will ask himself one day: Why climbing up there? This film proposes to answer these questions while following two ropes on an emblematic summit of the Alps, the Meije (3984 m) in the heart of the Ecrins National Park.

Sur les traces d'Angelo Dibona en Vénéon is a documentary about alpinism that takes place in La Meije and Aiguille Dibona. It was directed by Walfroy Constant in 2012 and produced by Yeti Production. It features Jérôme Chancrin, Jean-Michel Asselin, Sylvie Danjard, Brigitte Turc, Fredi Meigan, Nathalie Meigan and others.
