The movie starts with a dark figure of a man, running along the top of the dam. The only time he stops is to rope his ankles by attaching the other end to the railings. Then he launches himself into the abyss. When he finished his breathtaking descent towards the floor of the valley, he pulls a gun and fires to a building situated beneath him a roped piton hook.
