Grandes Murailles
Guido Monzino (1957)
La grande muraglia is the toothed, fractured ridge, fractured, bristling with dizzying peaks overlooking valleys plunged into the mist, which from Chateaux des Dames, in the Breuil basin, goes to Monte Rosa through the Matterhorn. In twenty-five days an expedition of mountaineers, with Slodà, Compagnoni, Pèllissier and others, has covered it from one end to the other: always on the edge of the abyss, in an exciting and fantastic swing of rocks and snowfields. The film documents the feat, the difficulties, the bivouacs, the ropes on the sloping glaciers, the homage to the cross of Carrel, the first climber of the Matterhorn.- 1957
