Free Solo. In this episode we retrace an incredible feat ... worthy of an Oscar. Jennifer Lopez, Chadwick Boseman, Pharrel Williams ... were all in Los Angeles that night. And yes, he was there too: Alex Honnold, the first climber in history on the Hollywood red carpet. The first to free solo without a rope the most famous face of El Captain. It is June 3, 2017 when the film crew directed by the expert climber and filmmaker Jimmy Chin finds himself filming a documentary that is to put it midly, quite peculiar ... shooting every scene at the first take. The protagonist is Alex Honnold and the plot is the ascent of the Freerider wall, of El Capitan, in Free Solo. There is no margin for error, there is no "cut! Let's do it again". A misstep here would not only result in the end of the documentary. It is certainly not for everyone to decide to climb a wall of great difficulty untied and with video cameras around. The witnesses and the protagonist tell us about it, in an Oscar-winning story.
