‘Terre Alte’: CAI Foggia’s Mountain-Themed Film and Documentary Festival Debuts
On Tuesday, November 19 at 7:30 PM, the inaugural edition of the ‘Terre Alte’ film and documentary festival will kick off, organized by CAI (Italian Alpine Club) Foggia with the support of the CAI Central Film Archive in Milan and the Sectional Scientific Committee. The festival presents a selection of films and documentaries exploring the world of mountains, highlighting their human, social, and therapeutic significance. Screenings will be free and open to the public every Tuesday at 7:30 PM, held at the CAI Foggia headquarters at the ‘da Vinci’ Institute (entrance on Via Sbano).
The festival opens with the documentary ‘Quel che posso – Da zero a tremila’, directed by Enzo Francesco Testa and produced in 2017. This emotionally impactful film tells the journey of a group of young people who, through mountain therapy, confront and transform their personal challenges. Supported by the CAI Regional Committees of Abruzzo and Lombardy, the group embarks on a symbolic journey from the Abruzzo coast to the highest peaks, a journey representing profound personal transformation.
