In Face à Face, Hugo Clouzeau and David Arnaud follow Benjamin Védrines on a solo winter ascent of the Drus face in the Mont Blanc massif. After setting a record for climbing K2 in 2024, the mountaineer takes on this multi-day project to confront his fears. For the Paris opening, The North Face announces him as the guest of honor.
