It’s almost June.

2022 · 18 min

Arnaud Cottet, Mathieu Schaer and Jochen Mesle, accompanied by Jules Guarneri go for a week of camping on the Saleinaz Glacier, located on the Swiss side of the massif du Mont-Blanc. Their goal : riding the faces around them, eating fresh food and most importantly, findinga story to tell in their movie. Up there, only a few hours from home and at the same time lost in complete wilderness, they interrogate themselves about this activity they’ve repeated for years ; creating ski and snowboard films.

★ 9.02022
MovieDocumentary
Jules Guarneri grew up in Villars, with two adopted siblings, in a chalet haunted by the ghost of his mother who died when he was 20, and where his solitary father still lives; the latter presents him one day with his filmed diary. A cumbersome gift that the “filmographer” uses to make it resonate with his own images, thus forging his own emancipating path towards adulthood.

Inefficient Joy is an experimental ski film that explores the paradox of devoting so much time and energy to something as fleeting as the moments we pursue throughout the winter. In doing so, it questions why we do this and reveals the inexplicable joy that skiing brings.

Movie
Ghost Resorts is about absence, in places where skiers once frolicked freely. Those moments of joyful laughter on the slopes have been replaced by a mysterious sense of emptiness. But the skiing remains, still. “the Ghost Resorts series is an exploration of the ski culture, of an heritage, a golden age, those places where there was life, that have closed, but where skiing still remains”
