A suburban train pierces the heat. On the opposite platform, Chérif stands still and silent, as if trying to be invisible. Undocumented migrants would prefer to remain discreet. But in Chamonix, a black-skinned mountaineer does not go unnoticed. Chosen by the association 82 4000 Solidaires to guide a group of people in precarious situations to discover mountaineering, up there, crampons on his feet and rope in his hand, he is another man. Towards the summit, he hopes to trace a path of hope and equality for all.
This portrait is part of a series entitled ‘Altitudes’ that explores the many facets of the relationship between man and mountain across the world and cultures.

Acknowledgment:
FICNOVA recognises this film for providing a demonstration effect of a special help that can be offered to people “without papers” that goes beyond material needs. The elevated contact with the mountain can resonate with the depths of people and recognise an enormous inner strength, useful to face many difficulties afterwards.
