A 19 anni Marco Siffredi discende in snowboard la parete più ripida delle Alpi. A 22 ani propone la prima discesa dal tetto del mondo. Molti alpinisti avrebbero accantonato questa impresa ma non Marco. L'8 settembre del 2002, in cima all'Everest mette la tavola ai piedi alla ricerca di una nuova via di discesa. A 8600 m, si perdono le sue tracce...
Bertrand Delapierre, suo compagno di cordata ci apre i suoi archivi e rende omaggio a Marco: al di là delle Prime e successive imprese la vita "fuori norma" del piccolo principe della sciata.
