OF A LIFETIME

Original version
Within the De le Rue family, passion for freeriding is inherited from generation to generation. Almost turning 18 years old, the young Mila accompanied by her father Xavier and her uncle Victor (both three times freeride world champions) launches into her first expedition, to the magical land of Antarctica! After a long and stormy crossing in a sailboat, the crew reached the pure white continent, with its mountains of ice, its whales, its pinguins… If Xavier and Victor, more familiar with risk management, joyfully open amazing news lines, Mila will have to challenge her fears to fully embrace the adventure. A journey full of complicity, strengthening the trust between a dad and his daughter, and a skier to herself.
