The film tells the story of people who engage in extreme activities in nature - in the air, on the water and in the mountains.

Adrenaline can be addicting. Athletes around the world push their limits in death defying acts to get the feeling of it. Extreme sports, extreme climates.

No other sport in the world requires that you tape your racket to your hand - but for wheelchair tennis. Mark Eccleston is an athlete who has overcome tremendous adversity - this frank, fearless and often funny film tells his triumph of the human spirit. He became one of the world's leading wheelchair tennis players and held the World No 1 spot for fourteen months. He went on to win a silver medal in the Athens Paralympics in 2004. Mark could never have achieved this level of success without the great will power he shows daily - and a philosophy which is as useful to the able bodied as to the disabled.

To the four corners of the globe, from Chamonix Mont-Blanc to French Polynesia via Châtel, the Swiss Alps, the Pyrenees and the Spanish desert of Almeria, the La Nuit de la Glisse film “Addicted to Life” showcases extraordinary feats from passionate athletes within wild, threatening natural environments. A unique encounter of the close kind with men and women who continually push their limits in extreme situations. In search of new challenges and unique sensations, they spend their lives studying their respective environment in detail. Across mountains and oceans, they bear witness to climate changes that affect the landscape and nature’s elements. From the melting snow caps to the dying coral reefs, pollution threatens to changes the backdrop of our global ecosystem.

From the snow-capped Alps to the waves of Western Australia and Tahiti, Human X showcases athletes pushing the limits of fear and danger, navigating nature’s challenges and a changing climate, celebrating self-transcendence, transmission, and harmony with nature. All these athletes embody the drive to surpass limits — we call them Human X. HUMAN X – SAGA is an extended cut of the latest LA NUIT DE LA GLISSE feature film HUMAN X II, tailored specifically for Australian audiences, and includes the brand new 2024 feature in its entirety starring 2024 Female Surfer of the Year and local Sydney legend Laura Enever; and also features a bonus prologue with highlights from 2023’s HUMAN X film including Australian big wave chargers Kerby and Cortney Brown.
