Thirty years after participating in the shooting of the legendary snowboarding film “Kallaallit Nunaat” in Greenland, Mathieu Crépel, one of the greatest French snowboard champions in history, returns to the places that ignited his passion.

Narcis (Directed by: Elias Elhardt - duration: 18 minutes - year: 2019)
A small ski resort, Brezovica, in the heart of Kosovo, becomes a meeting place in a region scarred by war and ethnic conflicts. With several hotels and abandoned ski lifts, time seems to have stood still here after the collapse of Yugoslavia. Hamdi, a snowboarding enthusiast, is one of the locals who now wants to breathe new life into this special place. Join Elias in this forgotten world and reflect on how one can build a future if the past still weighs so heavily.

Trento Film Festival: Mountains and Cultures
Founded in 1952, the Trento Film Festival is the first thematic film festival in the world and the second Italian festival after the Venice Film Festival. For over seventy years, it has been the reference event dedicated to the themes of mountain, adventure, and exploration, and environmental, cultural, and current issues have continuously made the scope of the event and its programming more stimulating and varied.
The mountain is the protagonist, and numerous themes linked to it, starting from mountaineering and its great international names, have opened up and evolved over the years, exploring new forms of language, dialogue, and sharing with the public.
Every year, the international competition presents the best documentaries, feature films, and short films set in mountains and extreme regions of the world.
