Mammut athlete Yannick Flohé takes on Excalibur, one of the hardest sport climbing routes in the world, rated 9b+. This film chronicles his grueling 19-session battle with a route that pushed him to his physical and mental limits — through blood, pain, and a relentless cycle of setbacks that tested his resolve at every turn. What makes this film compelling is not just the jaw-dropping difficulty of the climbing, but the raw honesty Flohé brings to the experience. His candid reflection on reaching a point of near-indifference — returning again and again simply out of habit and love for the process — captures something rare and real about elite climbing. When the send finally comes, it feels earned in the deepest sense.
