Behind the Rockies

Overview

A solitary paraglider follows the spine of the Rocky Mountains, from the Mexican border all the way to the heart of Canada, moving forward only with the wind beneath his wing or the slow rhythm of his steps, over more than 3,000km. From the southern deserts where snakes glide through the dust to the vast Canadian forests watched over by bears, his journey gradually transforms into an inner quest for the true meaning of adventure. As the landscapes unfold and solitude deepens, he discovers that the greatness of a journey does not necessarily lie in the extreme, but in those simple moments when one feels alive, far from the world, suspended between earth and sky.
