While the techniques, equipment, open-mindedness, and outlook on the mountains have changed, the unique bond between guides and their clients remains unchanged. The beauty of the mountains, the love of exploration, the passion, and the physical challenge are the backdrop for the film, the power of adaptation is its central theme. Throughout the ages, guides have managed to reinvent themselves by constantly changing their perspective on the mountains that frightened them, on the customs and conventions that differentiate climbers within the same roped party, on certain peaks that seemed impossible to them... For two centuries, they have risen to the challenges they faced: so they climbed mountains, so they broke conventions, so they rose to the ranks of transmitters of messages about the taste for effort, mutual aid, solidarity, freedom, and a love of the great outdoors, values so important in today's world, carried forward as a banner in the face of tomorrow's challenges.
