Pierre, a Parisian engineer, makes a sales pitch for his company’s robotic arm in Chamonix, the capital of the French Alps. When his colleagues return to Paris, he stays on, pitching a tent just below the Aiguille du Midi cable car station, in the lap of Mont Blanc. He strikes up a friendship with Léa, the head of the station’s restaurant, as a mysterious glow glitters in the deep mountains.
Winner of the SACD Award in the Cannes Directors’ Fortnight competition, The Mountain is quirky, delicate and poetic. Filmmaker Thomas Salvador, who plays the part of Pierre, amazes us with stunning widescreen cinematography, charms us with a shy and sly sense of humor, and offers what Screen calls “one of the most delightfully unexpected plot twists seen at Cannes this year.”
Filmography: Vincent (2014)
