'The Climb' is a 2017 French adventure comedy film directed by Ludovic Bernard which tells the real-life story of Nadir Dendoune.

Plot



Samy Diakhat is a young man of Senegalese origin from the Cit des 4000 in La Courneuve. Like many of his friends, he is unemployed but wants to get out of it. Since middle school, he has been in love with Nadia, an employee of the neighborhood supermarket. He try to win her with his kindness, but she resists him, for fear of loving a frivolous boy who will disappoint her. Samy tells her that out of love for her, he would climb Mount Everest, but Nadia takes this for a joke. Samy, determined to impress Nadia, starts looking for funding for his trip to Nepal. Without having experience of mountaineering or even physical training, he throws himself into the adventure but quickly realizes his weaknesses and the colossal challenge he must face. Meanwhile, the news has spread through the suburbs and Paris like wildfire: the whole suburb, radio and press, is with Samy to cheer him on and watch his exploits hour by hour, while his mother is dying of anguish at losing her son.
