[Applause]

the naga and the great party of the people

Mongolian a kind of olympiad the most

ancient after that of Greece is

almost all the men of

ulan bataar and the steppe

you start the kids with the ride to

horse then you go to the fight tournament

so seniors at the shooting tournament with

the bow in summary the three ages of man

youth made of courage and of

I want to be strong

determination of adulthood

precision the care of that of the

old age

I certainly am not an heir of gengis

khan but i think i lived more o

less the same experience as a boy

I was a climber and a mountaineer

of a certain level up to 30 years

after which I started to deal with

cinematography

obviously linked to the mountain to the places

extremes and so on

and finally dubbed the buoy of 60 years e

I began to dedicate myself to writing

it’s not that much has changed me

I feel the same boy in the same boy

marello of a time

the same desire to go of

compare myself to experiment with

telling take care

in my opinion it means above all

cultivate yourself through the

own vocation and it is not that it is one

vocation only in character

religious like that of the young monks

Tibetans and their interminable

walk in prostration we talk about

vocation also in the scientific field

artistic cultural a splendid

disease that the contagion can

very early Hegelian synthesis takes place very soon

of the two categories

amateurs and professionals in

maniacs that are extremely more

interesting are kind of happy sisifo

and they push their passion all around

days at the top of the mountain happy in the

see it roll downstream to be able to

to reject back up follow gods

projects for years even if they have now

understood that they will not realize it anymore

this project because it is not without

inconvenience siddharta is not like that

important

the goal as the journey even better

the long endless chase that precedes

jumping and no matter how long

it will land in the sand because it is the

moment when you are books from the ground and that

soar in the air

the most important thing must be

hands to pursue an idea that is you

come to mind as a child for

show yourself that this child was

fantasizing in my case a child

who dreamed of mountains to climb with le

ice axes the camera in the

backpack

as if childhood were not

nothing but a flashback of a movie

autobiographical already realized

Enthusiasm entusiamo is like the

blizzard that sweeps the icy coasts

of the bering strait in winter

he will determine your way

a road along a constant path

towards a horizon that is not that

you glimpse just fine but you know that

it exists because you already have it inside of

you like the enthusiasm that is a ravine

between the rocks of the cerebral insula one

source of pure water some days

the water comes out slowly

others instead the continuous jet

overflowing like a mountain stream

full of enthusiasm that is not by chance

it means full of God to determine the

your way your route and it is not

and it is not important to be one

shortcut or a useless long one

deviation forward always forward following

the primeval idea that speaks to you with the

freshness of a child’s ingenuity

unfortunately the contingency of life

so many times you do not

he admits to taking care of yours

passion of your vocation

in this the family becomes great

importance because it is often inside

of a familiar search that you learn to

take care of your vocation

not necessarily the same as his father

but you learn the style of las force

determination to achieve their own

dreams to go around imposed

extreme nature you have to have physical and

it is not a purely a matter of

indeed, training is a question

quite natural because it’s not there

exercise that allows you to feel good

without headache at 78 mi lament

share or in the middle of the waves of the strait

of drake gray or 40 degrees below the

zero or in the jungle between swells of

mosquito bearers of cerebral malaria

you have to be right with yourself

when conscious and unconscious they work

in unison you reach the levels

tall

not only in mountaineering but for

do all this you have to start from

immediately compose with liturgical attention

all the tiles of this huge

mosaic starting at the center as yes

dealt with a mandala of flowers and

magnificent ephemeral colored powders

amazing metaphor of my life

initiation and initiation begun in

1966 I was ten years old and I was not there

clinging to the crime of the horse like

a Mongolian child but in a bound wall

with my father and a friend is directed to

top of the great zebru there was fog

we went a little bit, maybe just a

my cause

so my father told me you stop here

and waiting for us with a serious and a lot

unconscious I also think he made me a

step and I sat for more than

an hour wait for my father the other

they went to the top and did not come back

he did a lot

I do not remember it was cold 3.600

meters clouds covered the gullies and not

I had this feeling of falling though

that straight there made me understand one

thing that alpinism was not a game e

not even a sport was something more

pay weeks later he was coming down from

another mountain once was not there

the weather forecast for which on Saturday

Sunday we went if we took it

peace are coming down in the middle of the

storm

and at a certain point he is a father

worried we found a block

neither of rock is known hidden behind

live close to watch me face for

see how I was

I was so godlike that I told him about it

movie camera there a little bit my father me

he said in the mountains when there is the

bad weather is not lost or lost

filming time here is what I would have done

in life go to the mountains to climb

mountains film them even with the storm

to overcome my father to prove him

that he had done well to put me in the world

at 24 my personalissimo started

I had finished the nolano fight tournament

my training course was the instructor

of the mountain guide and ski instructor

graduated from the higher institute of

physical education with a thesis on

cinematography turned on the south wall

rail captain via salate 36 length of

rope five days of climbing then

among the most difficult streets in the world

during the climb I resumed mine

comrades with a super 8 here is the car

photographic returned then from california

I began to analyze the shots

perfect properties of the Via delle

slides with rickety shots

little guy and a bit blurred by the super hot

and I understood that photography with his

solemnity with its ability to

Absolute to sparkle the time was half

a little too complex for me I preferred

the cinematography the 24 25 frames

they are much easier system for

to tell

slides and super8 up to my first one

documentary shot in 16 mm and not in

patagonia in karakorum himalaya but le

Seychelles islands

the idea of ​​finding mountains from

another part where nobody had yet

tried and excited me so I managed to

compose a triptych of climbs e

documentaries on mountaineering

equatorial let’s say first in polini the

first in at the seychelles

then in Thailand where nobody had

still climbing to the end in the most place

far away there is an archipelago of the

tuamotu polynese of the French island

ghost of marcate to here with mine

small group of friends invent this

system to lift the camerano in

so that the climber would follow

a beautiful experience

the project often of fifa in the pacific

the title was nice was the idea of

to climb a South Tyrolean and a

cannibal but I realized perfectly

that to the alpinists to the people watching

the so – called mountain interests only one

genre the epic for the grotesque perhaps

it was a bit too early

few things are really dramatic

like a mountain that falls into the sea

difference between verticality

the horizontality the solidity of the

stone and the sea in continuous movement

where there really is the synthesis between the sea

and mountain and the land of graham peninsula

antarctic crazy place uninhabited where

to be able to climb in the mountains like

those of the first English nippers at the end

of the nineteenth century on the right virgin tops

for the historical and geographical pleasure of

be the first mammal to put us

foot is a strong intense recall

that of the mountains the same as

comes from the bottom of the earth from

deep deadly undertakings of 3 400

meters in the earth within which

get down with things

but not to tell businesses

alpinistiche os teleologiche for

telling stories of fear at dates

guys or go looking for

phantom animals like the bjorn iss

maze tastes that I think

could still live in the shins of

well mara the petrified forest of the

madagascar or in congo or papua where the

people still live on plants for fear

of the enemies of snakes and spirits

malignant

I kept filming in film

until the mid -nineties

trip to mongolia i mixed the mini

dv with a montage even a little more

tightened with the solemnity of 16 mm was

became much simpler anymore

elegant faster and less expensive

working in video but I was missing a bit

the moment of waiting when you wait

that the right light arrives before

pull the lever from the camera is

beautiful thing the wait is like the

perfume that comes out of the back room of one

pastry and that whispers you between the

easy period from the nose looks that i

cream cannons are ready fast

here instead it had become a bit too much

simple all in all though I appreciate it

simplicity there was no noise

of the camera from the film that

they turned the chassis is that he remembered the

blood that runs in your veins

only a red dot and a writing

at the bottom of the viewfinder rec with the video

very simple you have shot a scene you want

be sure of it in the realization

rewind and goals immediately with the

camera where to go home to stay

in negatives to develop how many times he has

wrong ball ex wife apcom eichler

always French movie cameras put me in

crisis but you know the French is not that

they are megan of mechanics

the difference the acquaintance between paradise

and hell

in French paradise does the chef

German does the mechanic the English does the

Italian policeman makes the lover and the

Swiss holds at the common fund but

the hell

the Frenchman is a mechanic

the German does the policeman the English does

the chef the Swiss is a lover and

Italian holds the common box pal

according to them three quarters sixteen noni

luckily we finally got to

a common standard for the whole earth

the hd with my son lucas ho

experimented for a long time the 3d la

Stereoscopy in the mountains and wonderful

from a depth effect

spectacular in an alabaster workshop

benso made to build a hub in splitter

very light in order to bring two

side by side rooms at the top of the mountain

in 3d we shot a teaser of a

thriller I wrote that it is now

released in a comic book called the hutt

the story awaits you 27 years ago e

every winter unfailingly since then

careful of everyone in mind of

turn it into a movie send the story

of all today’s integrated vision a

360 degrees with ambient sound for now

the buggles to watch it is not that they are

of great quality but it is a matter of

little

a few things in technology have the same

search speed of the sensors

chip that can convert light into

electric discharge in electric charge

so in digital information but not

it’s almost never a question of quality

picture

because what really matters is it

storytelling the ability to tell

someone can do something today

beautiful documentaries with simple ones

mobile phones and here we come the third test

of madame the one suitable for precision

to the cure in this period I’m turning

around the lake

in Brescia some documentaries are

trying to document the last ones

work the peasants of the panoramic one

time port of the city

the fisherman of the garda where the coregoni

they are no longer born in the lake but in one

hatchery in desenzano today filming is

a gesture has become very easy

daily for almost all the boys who

love can be all that

even the most trivial things happen to them

on a social network without knowing that

everything that goes on the web

It remains archived forever

faces of girls hugging each other

urss elves the voices of grandparents who speak

still dialect will live forever like

the Parisians with the bowler that

they crossed in one afternoon

any the road between the carriages i

little dogs with an umbrella

while one of the lumière brothers

he operated the throttle from his camera

like the 300 Alps of the White War

signed by luca comerio their figures

rickety bianconero as they drag

a very heavy fee up to the top of the

mountain happened a hundred years ago as

today here in adamello not far from

we have made them immortal fragments

frames of a universal reality for

this every time we sign with the

our smartphone

we should put a lot more care and not

the video bulimia that is generated by

almost shameless ease with which now

you can record images and sounds

because everything that goes on the web

tells us about our story

life and the trace of our passage

in the trace of our passage on the

earth for this would deserve much more

attention to care and precision the same

of the ram’s artisan

[Applause]
