Overview

9ème Degré is a rock climbing documentary directed by Marc Cotto in 2005 and produced by 9D Video. It features some of the era's top climbers tackling the finest crags in Nice and the surrounding region. The film showcases cliff climbing and bouldering—complete with forearm-burning intensity and lactic acid buildup—on popular routes at Annot and La Turbie, while also offering a nod to more modest climbers on more accessible routes.
