This film documents the ambitious summer project of Ueli Steck and his mentor Daniel Mader. Ueli has climbed all 82 four thousand meter peaks in the Alps in 62 days, with a minimalist equipment. He has reached 30 summits all alone, the others together with different climbing partners. The film crew has constantly followed the climbers with the helicopter, which often was the only possibility to film them. However, the protagonists also shot films by themselves. Due to the synthesis of these two different perspectives, there results a film with breath-taking mountain pictures and authentic snap-shots of the alpinists, which give you the feeling to be part of the game.
