Crime à l'altimètre

About This Movie

Crime à l'altimètre is a curious blend of crime and drama that dives deep into human emotions under extreme circumstances. The tension builds as our mountain climber protagonist navigates not just the rugged terrain, but the murky waters of love and revenge. The pacing is contemplative, allowing time for the audience to digest the weight of his decisions. The film’s atmosphere is heavy, almost suffocating, which contrasts sharply with the breathtaking visuals of the mountains. The performances are raw, particularly the dynamic between the climber and the young Vietnamese woman, creating a palpable sense of longing and moral conflict. What stands out is its practical effects, which lend a gritty realism that complements the film's themes of desperation and sacrifice.
