At 18, Oscar Burnham loses his left hand in an accident that upends his life. Between hospital walls and long weeks of rehabilitation, he has to relearn everything: how to move, get dressed, and regain confidence. Little by little, sport becomes his lifeline. Climbing, mountaineering, and eventually para-alpine skiing allow him to rebuild both his body and his identity. Not Afraid of Happiness traces this journey of resilience, from the first days after the accident to Oscar’s integration into the French para-alpine ski team and his dream of competing at the Paralympic Games. The film also tells another story: an expedition to Norway with friends, through mountains and fjords. This adventure acts as a narrative thread and mirrors his personal path — a blend of effort, freedom, and friendship.Through Oscar’s sincerity and humor, the beauty of the landscapes, and the strength of the collective, the film shows how a young man transforms hardship into vital energy and rediscovers his desire to live through sport and the mountains.
