IL RISVEGLIO DEL FIUME SEGRETO
THE AWAKENING OF THE SECRET RIVER
Italia / 2012 / 80 min / Colour
A voyage along the course of the Po, following its flow and seconding its mysterious force, accompanied by Paolo Rumiz and the explorer Valentina Scaglia. Italy’s longest river runs through the most populous regions in the country’s north, struggling constantly against environmental abuses and destruction to preserve its uncontaminated magic. With the images and stories of boatmen, fishermen, inhabitants and explorers, the Po reveals its wild and unknown side, filled with beauty and harmony.
