STORYLINE
“God won’t ask me how many mountains I’ve conquered but what I’ve done for others.” This is the message of Armando Aste, a great climber who died in 2017. The film tells the story of the authors’ journey to the places that formed the mountaineer. From the Dolomites to an ancient valley that hides the ruins of a mill. From the factory where Aste worked for years, to a hospital in Africa. The reflection on the values that mountains inspire gives way to a broader reflection on man and his limits.
