Bonatti's life becomes a successful film in TrentoFilmFestival

The project began in spring 2011: it was the same Bonatti to accept the proposal to Fabio Pagani and Michael Imperio Road Television Ltd. "That was a coming home offers both Italian and international production, but Walter had never wanted to consider," said Rossana Podesta. "The design of these two young authors, and was so struck him that for the first time Walter decided to give its blessing to the creation of this story in pictures about his life."
During the preparation of films Bonatti is seriously ill and disappears in September of 2011. But young authors do not abandon the project, change the subject and involving the niece Rossana Podesta who becomes the voice of the story of the mountaineer. The film, which lasts 72 minutes, in its entirety, becomes the testament of a great man, able to win great mountaineering challenges: K2, Dru, G4, Matterhorn, just to name a few.
But the peaks are not reached the destination, are milestones that led him then to a trip around the world in search of himself. His exploration game with vertical walls, horizontal, and then passed to the route has always expressed towards the inner space where reside our fears and our desires. Where a man, sitting alone in front of himself, must decide whether to adapt or overcome. And Walter was never adequate, has written its rules and has lived up to all his life, allowing himself no escape routes or shortcuts. It is built as a mountaineer, as a scout, as a photojournalist and writer, but always and only with the intention of being a man. The documentary of this journey, rebuilding the professional biography, but especially human, who with his hands, muscles, heart, head, has struggled to be himself without compromise.
