This is a film about an extreme descent on skis. Franz Seeberger, an extreme mountaineer and skier, climbs the east buttress of Piz Palu alone. His skis are tied onto his backpack and he keeps stopping to look at the dangerous suspended glacier near the buttress. He wants to come down from its peak for the first time on skis, crossing the steep wall of the glacier. He fixes in his mind each part of the dangerous descent. The risk is big, he must decide.
