"IN COLD BLOOD", directed by Alex Heitler, featuring Victor de La Rue, is an intimate mountain film told through the inner voice of a rider torn between fear and obsession. As he moves between high-stakes competitions and raw backcountry adventures, we witness a search for balance between adrenaline and family, ambition and peace. No interviews, no showboating—just one man’s honest dialogue with the mountains. A visual and emotional journey into what truly drives us. In the end, it’s not about the best ride—it’s about feeling fully alive.
After his fourth Freeride World Tour victory, Victor de Le Rue returns to the mountains, the place where he feels most alive. The film follows him as he pushes his sport further, exploring new ways of approaching freeriding. It is not only about performance, but also about his personal journey through life. Victor reflects on the balance between calculated risk and the constant desire to progress. The story unfolds between the immensity of high mountains and the intimacy of family life. Through breathtaking landscapes, the film reveals his thoughts and emotions with honesty. It shows the freedom he finds in riding, but also the vulnerability behind his choices. At its core, the film is an intimate portrait of an athlete searching for meaning. It becomes a testimony of passion, resilience, and humility. Above all, it is an act of sharing — of his vision, his feelings, and his love for the mountains.
