Forty years ago 2000 people lived there, today Pietrapaola, in Calabria, is home to 200 people. I was born there, the son of two Germans who ended up there, who knows how it works, I had not been there for twenty years. Where are the others? And the stories?
I began to hear everything I found in Pietrapaola: the working instruments, the poems, the karaoke singers, the serenades. I understood that the art of life nestles in the intervals between the music, in the pauses, in the “tranquillitudine”.
Film Festival della Lessinia
The Lessinia Film Festival is the only Italian cinematographic competition dedicated exclusively to short films, documentaries, and full length features about the life, history and traditions of the mountains. The festival, initiated in 1995 by the Curatorium Cimbricum Veronense Association as a video exhibition dedicated to the Veronese mountains, gradually expanded to encompass the mountains of the entire world. It excludes from competition, however, works dealing with sport and mountain climbing.
