THE WINNING FILMS

Gran Premio “Città  di Trento” – Gold Gentian
LE PEUPLE MIGRATEUR by Jacques Perrin (Francia).
From the steppes of Asia to the Antarctica, from Monument Valley to the New York skyline and the heart of Paris, from the uncontaminated world to the industrial universe, from the solitude of the oceans to the wild peaks of the mountains, the director Jacques Perrin transports us in flight with the migratory birds of the planet, immersing us in their world. A magical film, a great documentary that employs exciting visual techniques. At the same time the film yields a spectacular epic story.

Italian Alpine Club Prize – Gold Gentian for the best film on mountaineering
THE GHOSTS OF K2 by Mick Conefrey
For the complete and well-documented reconstruction of the assault on the second highest peak in the world, K2, from the initial defeat to the Italian victory. An adventurous journey through precious period footage told through interviews with the protagonists of the time.

Silver Gentian for the best mountain film
LES FUNAMBULES DU YANG TSÉ by Patricia Micallef and Fulvio D’Aguanno (Francia)
A short film about a village deep in the mountains of China. A story that turns, as if by magic, into a universal metaphor. The simple but vibrant tale of the remarkable inventiveness of people faced with the obstacles imposed by their mountain home. A poetic story about the life of a community.

Silver Gentian for the best film on the mountain environment and promotion ofsustainable development.
