We're ascending

The Pirelli skyscraper in Milano to the height of 132 meters.

Once I saw a guy in New York, singing while cleaning windows.

When he got down I asked him, why is he singing.

He replied: 'I like to watch people working.'

It doesn't occur to him, he is working too.

-That's right. -But I work too. Showing off a bit.

But I have a good reason. You can experience it with me.

This is my mission. Take the audience,

I mean you, sitting at home,

and take you slowly

from 0 to 120 metres.

When I look down...

Oh My God! What a view!

Which floor is it?

24th.

Let's take a look inside. Whether we could...

-25th floor. -Who's that?

I don't know the girl. But I know dr Camagni.

Dr Castellani.

26th floor.

The accounting department.

-Is it air conditioned? -Yes, completely.

We're approaching 30th floor, The HQ.

-Engineer Leopoldo and Dr Alberto. -This is his son?

Yes Mr. Leopolds son, VP.

The observation deck floor. Shoot the panoramic view.

We can see how skyscrapers are built.

Very nice.

Yes, shoot the skyline.

THE HOLE

The Milano-Reggio Calabria leaves from platform no 1.

'We left from busy northern train station

and reached a deserted coast of Calabria at dusk.

Never before has Italian speleology

explored this unknown deep south.”

The Cave bulletin September/October 1961 GSP (Piedmont Speleological Association)

The group of young speleologists left the prosperous north

in the summer of 1961 to explore southern rural areas,

in the backland of Calabria, in Pollino region.

They explored Bifurto Abyss between Cerchiara and San Lorenzo Bellizzi.

After many days spent in the underground they reached its bottom at -687 metres.

At that time it was third deepest cave in the world.

This movie is loosely based on this secret project and dedicated to its protagonists.
