L'alpinista
Fabio Mancari (2015)
Agostino Gazzera, known as Gustin, was a worker at Fiat with a passion for mountaineering, who in the 1950s dreamed of climbing the mountain routes opened by legendary climbers such as Cassin, Boccalatte and Gervasutti. Today Gustin has conquered all these peaks, from the Monviso and Cervino to “the university of climbing”, Mont Blanc, without ever forgetting where he comes from, becoming in his turn a point of reference and a model for new generations.Fabio Mancari, Giacomo Piumatti
