The Summit of the Gods is a French animated film directed by Patrick Imbert, released in 2021. It is an adaptation of the manga The Summit of the Gods by Jirō Taniguchi, based on the novel by Baku Yumemakura. This journey is set against the backdrop of the fate of a Japanese mountaineer and George Mallory\'s adventure to the summit of Everest.Balancing on a double culture that he claims, Amine Bouhafa develops a very personal style by playing with the clichés of orientalism. The quality of his writing and the originality of his style led to his being chosen by the producer Sylvie Pialat and the Mauritanian director Abderrahmane Sissako to compose the music for Timbuktu. The film won seven Césars, including the one for best original music.More recently, he composed the inspired scores for Tu Mourras À Vingt Ans by Amjad Abu Alala (Golden Lion for the first film - Mostra 2019 / Best Music Award at the Odessa International Film Festival 2020), Un Fils by Mehdi Barsaoui awarded for the best actor (Orizzonti selection - Mostra 2019), Gagarin by Fanny Liatard & Jérémy Trouilh (Official Selection of the Cannes Film Festival 2020 - Best Original Score Award at the Rome Film Festival 2020 and at the Bordeaux International Independent Film Festival (FIFIB), L\'Homme Qui Vendu Sa Peau by Kaouther Ben Hania awarded Best Actor (Orizzonti selection - Mostra 2020) and the Star of the Best Arab Film at the El Gouna Festival 2020 and The Summit of the Gods by Patrick Imbert (Official Selection of the Cannes Festival 2021).The film won seven Césars, including the one for best original musicCannes Film Festival (2021) - Official SelectionTrack Listing:1.Mallory’s Legacy 2.Fading In the Snow – Amine Bouhafa & Etsuko Chida 3.Habu’s Farewell 4.Looking for Habu 5.The Rope – Amine Bouhafa & Etsuko Chida6.Ghost of a Child 7.The Mountain Call 8.Rambling in the Mountain 9.Alone on the Wall 10.Through the Khumbu Valley 11.An Icefall Journey 12.Feeling the Heights 13.The Storm 14.Finding Mallory 15.The Summit 16.Epilogue
