At the start of February Simon Lorenzi checked in with the coveted first ascent of Soudain Seul, one of the last great problems at Fontainebleau in France. The Belgian climber suggested 9A for the sit start to Dave Graham's Big island, making it only the second problem in the world of these difficulties after Burden of Dreams put up in 2016 by Nalle Hukkataival. Soudain Seul was later repeated by Nico Pelorson who suggested a downgrade to 8C+.
The journey that led to the first ascent was documented in all its minute details by Gilles Charlier who has now published this great trailer and launched a crowdfunding campaign to complete the documentary: fr.ulule.com/soudain-seul-le-film-/
