G.F. / Libération – July 4, 1987

With three film crews, 32,000 feet of film and 15 helicopter flying hours, Philibert dissects all of Profit’s preparation. One team on the face and another on the summit relayed each other at all times. During the night of the 12th to the 13th, Christophe is in trouble on the Eiger. Cold and a faulty flashlight. The clock is ticking. At the summit, Christophe bears the stigmata of a hellish night. Everyone surrounds him like a newborn baby. Shot by shot, Trilogy for One Man tells a love story.
