Different types of lives taking on the same challenge: to live in a place governed by the laws of Nature, in a tough climate where survival is a struggle and growing means adapting. The Mountains. Nino Negri gives voice to what the mountain vines have to take on through the stories of three Salewa athletes: three mountain guides who live the mountains on the terms of these last. Hostile and demanding as they may seem, those terms help towards making all human beings and vines stronger, more resolute and mature, with a character out of the ordinary and a willpower made of rock.
