L’alpinista, la veggente e il volto nella roccia
Mirto Storni (2006)
A few years ago, for five days, the entire population of the Val Bregaglia was in suspense. The alarm arrived on the evening of a Tuesday at the end of September. A woman from Germany launched the alarm, denouncing her husband's failure to return. The man, who had arrived in Bergell for a trip to the high mountains, had not told anyone which summit he intended to climb. The search, carried out from the sky by a Rega helicopter and on the ground by Mountain Rescue guides, was unsuccessful. The man seemed to have disappeared into thin air. But on Thursday, and again the next day, when it was now thought to abandon the search, strange indications had arrived to the rescuers. Indications that came from a Spanish seer, in the meantime contacted by the wife of the missing person.L’alpinista, la veggente e il volto nella roccia

Badile 70 anni dopo
Andrea Mauro (2007)
A film to commemorate the 70th anniversary of Riccardo Cassin's first historic ascent to the Piz Badile. July 16, 1937 Riccardo Cassin, together with Vittorio Ratti and Gino Esposito, is at the top of the Pizzo Badile. It is a historic first because the three Ragni di Lecco are the first to reach it by crossing the enormous north-east face of the mountain that is the symbol of the Val Bregaglia. A feat that after three days of fighting on the wall has also had its painful side, with the death during the descent of Mario Molteni and Giuseppe Valsecchi, the group from Como that had joined the people of Lecco.- 2007
