The journey
The effort, slower rhythm and relationships that grow among people walking together for several days.
Alta Via dei Lattari1876 — 20262026 EditionImages and memory
The documentary born during the 2021 crossing: a journey in Giustino Fortunato’s footsteps through landscape, memory and that vision of infinity that still challenges those who cross the Lattari Mountains.
The documentary
The trail becomes a story told through images.
Filmed during the 2021 crossing, the documentary follows the Alta Via dei Lattari 1876 cultural collective as it retraces Giustino Fortunato’s historic footsteps with a contemporary sensibility.
It is more than a record of a hike. It is a question addressed to the landscape and its people: what does it mean to feel free before the vastness of the mountains, the effort of the trail and the Mediterranean horizon?

The effort, slower rhythm and relationships that grow among people walking together for several days.
The Lattari Mountains as a living presence: ridges, forests, passes and the sea on the horizon.
Fortunato’s gaze reopens a story and invites us to know, care for and tell the territory.
The film is a fundamental step in the journey from an annual crossing to an established trail.
The images collected in 2021 preserve gestures, places, encounters and questions that gave depth to later editions. The documentary shares what the group experienced and turns a temporary experience into common heritage.
In Year Zero, 2026, that memory becomes a foundation for the future: the story does not remain in the past, but helps create a recognisable trail capable of producing new knowledge and relationships.
