(Peter) I didn't think I'd find
a friend like Bruno in life

nor that friendship was a place
where do you put your roots

and what is waiting for you.

I was raised as an only child
in a city apartment.

I wasn't used to doing things in twos.

But in the summer of 1984

my parents rented a house
in a mountain town,

where, ironically,
there was only one little boy alive at the time.

Bruno.

(Child) Bruno!

Bruno !

Bruno !
(SPEAKS IN VAL ADOSTAN DIALECT)

(Francesca) Excuse me, there's one here.

Come on!

Come on.

Come on!

Ah!

- Oh! Oh!
- Thank you thank you.

- I'm Frances.
- Hello, Wilhelmina Sonia.

- (Francesca) Pleasure.
- (Sonia) I'm going.

(Francesca) Goodbye.

- (Francesca) Love!
- Hmm?

- Come on, it's late.
- Okay.

- Good night.
- Good night.

(Francesca) Hey!

- (Francesca) Would you like some breakfast?
- (Bruno) Hmm.

(Francesca) We have just arrived,
but we have things.

- (Francesca) Do you want a biscuit?
- (Bruno) Yes.

- (Francesca) Do you live here?
- (Bruno) Yes.

(Francesca) Do you have brothers, Bruno?

(Bruno) No,
I'm the last child in the country.

- (Francesca) I don't understand.
- (Bruno) I'm the last child in the village.

(Francesca) Hello, Peter!

This is Bruno.

HI.

- (Francesca) Are you coming to have breakfast?
- Hmm.

- Thank you.
- Please.

How old are you, Bruno?

- 12 in November.
- Like Peter!

(Francesca) Only that he in January.

Where do you live ?

Over there, from uncles. My father isn't here.

(Francesca) And where is he?

He's away, he's a bricklayer.
In Switzerland or maybe in Austria.

And where is mom?

- Can I have another cookie?
- (Francesca) Yes.

- Ready?
- Wait.

Yes!

One two three!

One two three!

Ah!

- (Peter) Hello, Bruno.
- HI.

(SHOCK)
Holy shit!

You scared me.
Are you hurt ?

No, it works, let's go.

(SONG: "WHY MAY I NOT GO OUT
AND CLIMB THE TREES?" BY DANIEL NORGREN)

(LAUGHS)

(WHISTLE)

In Grana there were 183 inhabitants.

Oh! And now ?

- 14, including me.
- Hmm.

(Bruno) There were two shops, a bar,

the school, the bakery...

At a certain point,
they built the road.

You know, to get people to Grana.

- But do you know what happened?
- What ?

(Bruno) They've all gone away.

Ah, so your father too?

Yes, it's away. Even your ?

Yes, he's at home in Turin, he's working.

Meanwhile I'm here with my mother,

because we rented the house
for the whole summer.

What does it do ?

So, he's an engineer
in a huge factory,

where, think, 10,000 people work.

- Executioner dog!
- Eh!

- (Sonia) Bruno!
- 10,000.

(Sonia) Where are you?

\
Shit, my aunt! It's time to milk.

Ah!

(LAUGHS)

(Peter) According to my father,

for every season of lightness
was to follow one of gravity,

work time,
of the plain and the black mood.

Shit! But what the fuck are you doing?

But go...

(HORN)

Wait !

Wait !

Go ! Go now! Go!

(Peter) Meanwhile
my legs turned pale,

they healed from scrapes and scabs
and they forgot the itch of the nettles.

The days of Grana
they seemed so far away

I wondered if they really existed.

- Ah, I see you!
- Argh!

Argh!
(LAUGHS)

Argh

I'm glad you're back, Berto.

- What did you call me?
- Bert.

Means "rock" in my language,
as "Peter".

- When you're here, I call you that.
- Oh.

"Bert".

Come on, can you teach me your dialect?

All right, what do you want to know?

Um...

- Trees.
- Okay.

Like that one there.

That there is an "Iares"
and has soft needles.

(Sonia) Bruno!

- (Sonia) Bruno!
- (in Valle d'Aosta dialect) Fuck you!

HI.

- I did not hear anything.
- Oh! Really ?

Argh!
(LAUGHS)

(COWBELLS)

(BELATI)

Hi Dad !

These lines are called
"level curves".

Hmm.

The closer they are, the more they point at us
that we are sloping.

Okay.

The numbers, on the other hand, are the high altitude.

- It's here...
- Like this, this, this...

Exact.

This is where I want to get to tomorrow.

- "3010".
- Hmm.

Madonna!

Can I come too?

Are you serious ?

- Tell me what are you doing?
- Yes.

Are you sure ?
Let's not go back.

Here they are.

Matterhorn, Grand Tournalin, Breithorn

and that is the Lyskamm.

The crest they call it
"Men eater". Did you know that ?

No.

(John) Huh.

Don't you miss that crap city?

No!

(COUGHS)

Let's go ?

Come on, dad, we've just arrived!

Okay.

(John) How is your friend?

Well, I believe.

He went to the pastures
with his uncle to help him,

so I never saw him again.

It takes an hour on foot to get there.

(John) An hour isn't much, is it?

We can go together if you want.
What do you say ?

All right.

(John) Done.

Ale.

- Oh! Let's go!
- Wait !

- Come on, boy, go! Go Go !
- Wait wait !

(JOHN HUMANS)

(Francesca) Excuse me for continuing to insist.

I think I understand
that didn't go so well,

so he has to repeat the year?

I do not know.

(Francesca) Well, if it was rejected...

Bruno is smart. It would be a pity,
if he stopped studying, right?

Oh.

He needs someone
to help him study

so he definitely makes it.

Yes, you should talk to my husband about it.

(LOO)

- Hello, Peter!
- Hello, Bruno!

Hi, you must be Bruno.
Pietro told me a lot about you.

- Good morning.
- HI.

- Is that your uncle?
- Yes.

Come, I'll show you something.

- Let's take the black and white one over there.
- All right, let's try.

Heh! Heh!
(PETER LAUGHS)

Do you like it ?

Yes.

(Bruno) I'm learning to be a cheesemaker.

What does it mean ?

- The one who makes the cheese.
- Did you make these yourself?

No, my uncle.
I turn around and keep them in order.

- (Uncle) It's too little.
- (John) Eh.

(Uncle) There are absurd rules, no
we are able to live more than our work.

(John) Instead the mountains
what are their names ?

- Grenon.
- What is the Grenon ?

All. We don't name the peaks here.

(John) The glacier instead?
Has he ever gone there?

(Uncle) No, never had the time.

In the next days
I wanted to go there with the boy.

If it's okay with you, we could take you
also Bruno. What do you think ?

(Uncle) he Okay.

(Uncle) Pass some wine.

- Pietro, do you know that once I touched...
- Shh!

We'll talk later.

Now we don't talk,
we talk when we stop.

(Bruno) Okay.

Isn't he gorgeous?

Yes.

(Peter) The glacier fascinated man
of science that was in my father.

He reminded him
his studies in chemistry and physics,

the mythology on which he was trained.

He told us what the glacier is
the memory of past winters

that the mountain keeps for us.

above a certain height
retains the memory

and if we want to know
of a distant winter,

that's where we have to go.

The water you are drinking

it's not last year's snow.

That will be water from 100 years ago.

- 100 years ?
- Maybe even 150.

It's hard to know.

The beautiful thing about the glacier, then,
is that it never stands still.

(John) In your opinion, why?

Why does everything go down?

Good boy.

You're smart.

Because everything goes down.

- What a beautiful day, huh?
- Hmm.

Your father knows a thing or two!

Yes.

It's nice that he teaches you too.

Why, not your father?

Eh... My father is always away.

When I see him, he speaks little.

It seems that I bother him.

(WHAT BREATHING)

Are you OK ?

Yes.

- Do you want a glass of water?
- No, no, no.

- Shall I call your father?
- No, no, no.

Now I try to sleep, ok?

- Good night.
- Good night.

Where are you going ? On the glacier?

Yes.

nothing in particular,
let's go for a ride.

(Man) Please,
be careful with these children.

Go.

Oh! What happens ?

Nothing.

(John) Let's not stop, let's go.

Rhythm!

Oh!
(JOHN LAUGHS)

(John) You jump first,
Bruno, go!

Take a deep breath and jump.

Ready ?

Watch out for the ice axe.

One, two... Go!

Good boy. You come.

Good boy ! Hate...

Incredible! Give me five.

Good boy.

(John) Go, Peter!

It's your turn now.

- Oh!
- Everything OK ?

What happens ?

- Nothing nothing.
- Everything OK ?

- (John) Did you slip?
- Yes.

- Nothing nothing.
- (John) Go.

(John) Jump!

Dad, I can't do it.

(John) Yes you can do it, come on!

We can't go back, forward.

You just want to, come on.

Bruno did it, come on.

- Come on, Peter!
- Oh!

Peter! Peter!

Come on, hey. Everything OK ?

- Sorry, dad, sorry.
- Shh. No, but what "excuse me"?

Nothing, it's a bit of altitude sickness.
It's nothing.

Shh, look at me.

It's a little altitude sickness, okay?

It's nothing, get up.

Breathe, take small breaths.

All right ?

- (Giovanni) Bruno, can you jump?
- Yes.

Take your ice ax and watch the ropes,
which are intertwined.

Good boy ! Good boy.

- You are ?
- Yes.

All right.

Now get up.

You lead the rope, huh?

- You drive it, okay?
- Okay.

Don't worry, it's nothing, now it's over.

(John) The lower we go down
and the more it passes.

Bravo, you are a champion! Go

(Peter) The next day
my father returned to Turin,

but the memory of that morning would be
remained forever in my memory.

Together on the glacier,

just the three of us,

like it would never happen again.

(THEY KNOCK)

(Francesca) Hello!
Come, come! Sonia.

No thanks, I'll leave you.

(Bruno) "I don't know
how long could our sleep last,"

"but it was undoubtedly lu... long."

(Francesca) "Long, because..."

"Because I refresh us..."

- "Restaurant..."
- "Completely."

"I woke up first and a sa mi..."

"I examined..."

- "I carefully examined our cell."
- "Cell."

Break.

"The waiter..."

"The waiter,
taking advantage of our rest,"

"she had cleared the table, but..."

(Bruno) Hey!

Do you still have a lot to work on?

Go outside, I'll be right there. Go !

Come on.

Your parents have spoken
with my uncle, did you know?

No.

- Strange, I don't understand anything anyway.
- About what ?

Of the secrets you keep between you.

What did they talk to your uncle about?

That after the summer you bring me
with you in Turin to go ballroom dancing.

- High school ?
- Yes.

They make me choose the school I want
and I will live with you.

And your uncle what did he say?

- He's fine with it. Do you know why ?
- (Peter) Why?

For the money, he cares who pays.

They said they'll take care of it
to food, lodging and school.

- I what?

You would like ? Would you ?

I do not know ?

I've never been to Turin,
I can't even imagine.

You know, it's different.

You stay all the time inside,

because everything is a danger,
you can not go out.

And you ? You would like ?

(Francesca) Pietro, it's for the good
of Bruno, it is for his future.

What's the matter if he grazes cows
and does it make cheese?

- Nobody.
- Here you are.

But he has the right to study for later
decide whether to go back to his cows.

You want to bring Bruno
in that shitty city we hate?

We don't hate the city, Peter.

- Turin ruins it someone like Bruno!
- It is not true.

I don't understand you.

(Francesca) It can be a beautiful thing
for him and for you.

This was your idea, not mine,
but the friend is mine, not yours!

Well, that's a bit selfish...

- (in Valle d'Aosta dialect) Fuck you!
- Oh! Do not you dare !

Don't be vulgar, it's not like us!

(Peter) Executioner dog!

What is this lake called?

- Grenon.
- Oh.

But maybe you should tell him.

What ?

That you don't want to come to Turin,
that you want to stay here.

No?

You're crazy ?

I've been going up and down all my life
for this mountain.

(Bruno) Oh!

It's me, Wilhelmina Bruno,
and I'm leaving!

Understood ?

(THEY KNOCK)
(Francesca) Yes?

- (Sonia) Good morning.
- (Francesca) Sonia!

- (Sonia) I hope I'm not disturbing you.
- No, come on, have a seat.

Can I make you a coffee?

No thanks, I just wanted to leave you these.

(Francesca) How many eggs!
How nice, you didn't have to!

- (Francesca) Where are you going?
- From Bruno.

Bruno has left.

Where ?

The father took him away,
to work with him.

(Sonia) she didn't want him to go to Turin.

Bruno will be away all summer.
I am sorry.

Peter!

(Francesca) Peter!

(SONG: "BLUE SKY MOON"
BY DANIEL NORGREN)

(Pietro) The urgency of my parents
to help Bruno, to educate him

had separated us.

While I was bored in the summer,

he worked with his father on construction sites.

His adult life
it started when I was 13.

Mine who knows.

I don't think he knew
what was adolescence.

- (Girl) Hello.
- (Girl 2) Hello.

- How long have you been waiting?
- Ninth.

- (Girl 2) Hello!
- (Boy) Hello.

- Can I ask you for a cigarette?
- Yes, certainly.

- Thank you. Do you also have to light?
- Yes.

(INDISTENTIAL VOICES)

- Yes, it was here...
- (Alexander) Hello! Hi Paul !

Hello, Alessandro, are you all right?
How is it going ?

(INDISTENTIAL VOICES)

(Peter) He nodded his head.

I raised my hand

and then nothing else.

- (in Valle d'Aosta dialect) I'll pay.
- (together) Bravo, bravo!

(Pietro) I didn't ask him how he was,
how much he earned

if he had a girlfriend,
what he wanted from the future,

what he thought
of what had happened.

He didn't ask me how I was,
how were mine

and I didn't answer:
"My mother well, my father I do not know."

(John) Oh, fuck.
There are also those to put inside.

- (Francesca) Lunch...
- (John) Holy shit, come on.

- Don't worry. These legal out.
- Yes.

- Come, try it, this is yours. Go.
- Yes, wait.

Go. Come on.

Weighs.

- You'll make it ?
-Of course she can.

- (John) Hop!
- I can not do it.

(John) Yes you can!

- No, sorry, it's very heavy.
- Put it... Let's empty it a bit.

- No, it's not necessary.
- (John) All right, don't worry.

(John) Wait.
Now let's do it again together, okay?

- That's no good.
- What's wrong with it?

- Nothing's good.
- let's move things.

- What "nothing" ? Come on !
- The tent, the lake, everything is not right.

Peter, please!

What do you expect from me?

What am I going fishing with dad?

Maybe we put on a bonfire, uncork
a bottle and let's sing together, huh?

Peter...

- It's stuff you do with friends.
- Come on, Peter.

- You have no friends.
- (Francesca) Pietro, please!

So you ask me these things?

- Come on, Peter.
- I do not feel like.

(INDISTENTIAL VOICES)

(Pietro) The following year I returned to the mountains
just for a few days,

after that I stopped going there altogether.

Bruno and I would never see each other again
for 15 years.

(COWBELLS)

Why can't I make my own choices?

Do you want to make your own choices? Make one. Hm?

Do you want to do... doc...

- Documentaries.
- Documentaries ? Hm?

Do you want to study American Literature?
What do you want to do ?

Write ? Travel around the world ?

You have started your studies.
Finish them! Concentrate!

There will always be time to...
fucking dream!

(John) Peter, I beg you.

Don't throw your life away.

Listen to me.

- You're the one who wasted yours.
- (Francesca) Peter!

(John) Ri... Ri...

- Take back what you said.
- No.

Pick it up.

I know one thing.

I don't become like you.

I swear.

(SONG: "EVERYTHING YOU KNOW MELTS
AWAY LIKE SNOW" BY DANIEL NORGREN)

(JOHN COUGHS)

- Hey, Peter!
- Hey.

Are you coming with us to Mad Dog? Huh?

- Come on, when you get off, come.
- No, I wanted to wake up early tomorrow.

- Yes, come on, as usual.
- Yes, well. Hello, Peter.

- HI.
- We will see each other later.

(SONG: "EVERYTHING YOU KNOW MELTS
AWAY LIKE SNOW" BY DANIEL NORGREN)

(Man, radio) In this first half

Juventus showed little attention
in the opponent's half.

Enter the area...
(indistinct voice)

- (Man) Cannavaro's advance...
- (John) Ah...

(Man) Cannavaro removes
finally the ball...

(LISTING IN THE LIST)

(VOICES IN AUDIBLE)

Yes.

- Mom, is there anyone there with you?
- (Francesca) Alessandra is here.

- Is there anyone there with you?
<- Alessandra is here!

Yes?

- Okay, I'm coming home.
<- I didn't hear.

- I'm coming home!
<- All right.

Okay.

(BIRDS SOUNDS)

(ENGINE ROAR)

Hello, Bruno.

(Bruno) Hello, Peter.

Condolences.

Thank you.

- Thanks for the fire.
- No, my pleasure.

Nice beard.

Yours is more beautiful, a real beard.

Come on, let's go, it takes a while.

Get off.

- It's here ?
- We walk.

"We walk".

Go Go.

If you stop, it's worse.

(Peter) Yes, huh?

(Bruno) This is the terrain.

Those are the old walls.

(Peter) It's a ruin.

When your father saw her,

she knew immediately that she was the right one.

Then I had to look for the owners
and get them to sell.

Her name is Barma Drola.

- As ?
- Barma Drola.

- (Pietro) What did he want to do with it?
- (Bruno) A house.

(Peter) "A house" ?

(Bruno) she wanted to build a house here.

She asked me to build it.

I inherited a pile of rocks.

(Bruno) I'm free this summer.

- For what ?
- To build it.

No thanks, no need.

I promised him.

(Bruno) she was right there
where are you now,

when he made me promise.

Even if he's gone,
for me it doesn't change anything.

And with what money?

- Just buy the material.
- (Pietro) Who pays you?

Do not worry for me.

The only thing I need

is the laborer.

No.

(Bruno) So we finish
in three or four months.

I'm clumsy.

I am sorry.

I'll teach you.

Four months ?

Well then let's get started
after winter,

when the snow goes away.

Thank you.

(Peter) My father died
when he was 62 and I was 31,

the age he was when I was born.

But I wasn't married,
I hadn't had a child

I didn't even have a steady job.

My life seemed to me
half that of a man

and half that of a boy.

What was my father's wish?

He, who never succeeded
to stop working

and that it hardly passed in the mountains
some summer day.

What was I to do
with his lost dream

And with a promise that wasn't mine?

I must be the red marker,
because he's always been the black one.

This is when we went
on the glacier with Bruno,

so Bruno must be
the green marker.

No?

They often went to the mountains.

Up?

(Francesca) Yes.

00:51:38,458
Yes?

00:51:48,000
In what ?

00:51:56,333
00:51:59,375
and when he needed advice,
he came to us.

00:52:06,583
Okay.

That's what happens to those who leave.

00:52:17,375
Let the others continue
to live without him.

00:52:35,958
Was he asking?

00:52:45,042
00:52:54,083
(SONG: "THE FOX CHASE"
BY DANIEL NORGREN)

(Bruno) On three, push.

- Are you tearing down the wall?
- With your feet, come on.

One two three.

Go Go ! Go!

(Pietro) It will take a week
to clear it.

It is possible, yes.

Oh shit.

Are you saying he can do it?

It's hard to know.

This here is a strange plant.

It's strong when it grows where it was born,

but it is weak if you put it to another side.

- Have you already tried it?
- Huh.

- How did it go ?
- Bad.

- Shall we leave this stuff here?
- No.

I stay there too.

Do you want to sleep up here?

I can't lose
four hours of work a day.

The bricklayer is on the construction site,

that's how it's done.

So I go up and down
and you stay here for four months?

What it takes.

Then on Saturday I go down
and I sleep in my bed.

I'll wait for you at 9 in the morning.
At 18 you are free.

(Bruno) Is that okay with you?

Yes.

Well.

Then bye.

HI.

Shh, calm down.

Shall we put it?

After, after. We do it later.

Hey, hey...

Hey ! Hey!

Hey ! Hey ! Hey!

You don't have to think too much in this job,
otherwise you go crazy.

Look what a beautiful day.

What's it like when it's bad?

(Bruno) Bert?

Let's go!

Absurd... I remembered it bigger.

- (Peter) Here.
- (Bruno) Hmm.

In the last ten years

I never spoke to my father.

I know.

Was he talking to you about me?

(Bruno) No.

And your father ?

Is he still there?

(Bruno) he didn't leave me alone.

I finally had to give him one.

I must have hurt him,
because I haven't seen him since then.

I am sorry.

Old drunk.

(Pietro) I imagined the evenings there among them
when Bruno was 20, 25 years old

and he was there talking
with my father instead of me.

Maybe it wouldn't have happened
if I had stayed,

or maybe we would share those moments.

I felt like I was lost
the most important things,

while I was busy with others
so trivial that I didn't even remember them.

concrete, stones, concrete, concrete,

stone for so.

Ti, ta, pum, concrete, the house.

- "The House".
- (Peter) Broadly speaking.

There is a great master builder.

All thanks to Bruno.

Seriously, he's very good.

I'm just the handyman.

Starting tomorrow I'm moving up too.

- Oh.
- (Peter) Yes.

(Francesca) He would have been happy
of what you're doing, you know?

Yes?

Thank you.

Hey, hey.

Let's go.

(Peter) Roy!

Roy!

Ah...

(Peter) Roy!

Roy!

Easy, Roy! Where the fuck are you running?

Bruno, here comes!

(Peter) Let's go.

- Ah!
- Go Go.

Ah!

Wait.

- (Peter) Go.
- Ah a

(Bruno) Go, go.

Wonderful.

(HAMMER BLOWS)

How do you get to the top of Grenon ?

It's easy, there's a path.

You arrive at the stony ground,
continue straight and get to the top.

You can't go wrong.

Ok, I'll try it on Sunday.

- Go now.
- No, not now.

- Go now !
- (Peter) No, not now.

- Today I manage here.
- Ninth.

(Bruno) Don't worry,
take the day.

- (Peter) No, no.
- Go now, I told you! Go !

(SONG: "LIKE THERE WAS A DOOR"
BY DANIEL NORGREN)

Bruno !

Bruno !

(Peter) Bruno!

Bruno !

Oh:

(Bruno) Peter!

Bruno !

No?

-Yes.
-Yes?

We finished ?

"Finished" is a strong word.
There is the roof.

Let's go down.

Come here.

(Bruno) Bomb.

(Peter) Oh! holy...

What are you doing ?

Nothing.

I wait.

Too bad the summer is over.

But you come back, right?

(Pietro) Of course I'll go back,
it's our home.

- What are you laughing at?
- (Bruno) It's your house.

Ninth.

This is both of us's home.

- You're crazy.
- Look, I'm not kidding.

This is our summer house.
We see each other here every year.

Alright.

"Alright" .

(Pietro) Finished here, what are your plans?

I would like to restore my uncle's pasture.

- Handsome.
- (Bruno) Hmm.

Catch some cows, like this,
they don't cost anything anymore.

(Pietro) Do they make something, at least ?

If it was for the money,
I would continue to be a bricklayer.

I wasn't born for this.

What was it you were born for?

To be a mountaineer.

(Bruno) All my ancestors lived
on the mountains with the beasts.

My father is the first who quit
and he took me away too.

(Bruno) He would have electrocuted
the cows with the current.

My uncle screwed up too.

It's a nice project, really.

Really.

' (Bruno) And you?
- Hmm?

- rune) do you plan ?
- I

No, I guess I don't know.

(Bruno) What have you done in these years?

I've done a lot of work,

but... actually nothing.

Your mother told me that you write,

that you tried to make a book.

No, she's not for me.
I'm not good enough.

I, if I like something,
I do, or at least try to.

What projects do I have?

The question was this.

Look,

a nice bonfire,

the fish,

a few mountains here and there

and you.

Stop like this.

Do not move.

(Peter) Stop.

Thank you.

Ecco.

I think I could stay like this forever.

I do not go anywhere.

Hello, Peter.

- Fili, do you want a coffee?
- (Filippo) How?

- A coffee, do you want it?
- (Peter) It's here.

(Philip) Yes, thank you.

(VOICES IN AUDIBLE)

Or.

Go ! What do we get out?

- Where are you going ? Who played ? Go.
- Dai !

This !

(Together)
we complain so much

- They're coming next week.
- Chi ?

- (Peter) The friends of Turin.
- Ah okay.

(Bruno) When they arrive,
I go down to the pasture.

No.

Yes, so I sleep on the construction site
and I work a little.

(Peter) There is space.

Ok.

- It's a smash.
- (Barbara) After work.

(Massimo) I'll do it. Of course ?

- (Peter) Go.
- (Massimo) Why not?

- (Barbara) Oh !
- (Peter) This is where we eat, outside.

- (Lara) You're welcome.
- (Barbara) Permission?

- Voila, here we are.
- Wow!

- Is gorgeous.
- Huh?

- Nice, huh?
- Holy shit.

- I mean, but what is it
? \ - And a picture.

Attention.

- (Maximum) No!
' (together) Heh 1

- Huh?
- (Massimo) It's beautiful.

This is Bruno's brilliant invention,
not the light bulb

but a mill
that he built down by the creek.

We have enough electricity for you.

- For her.
- For that.

- All right.
- It's enough.

But guys...

(Maximum) Sir?
(INDISTENTIAL VOICES)

(LAUGHS)
(Peter) So you conquered her?

(Max) Yes.

- (Massimo) I'm making a mess.
- I do.

- I told you the trick.
- (Max) Thank you.

- (Maximum) Eh!
- Bruno! Bruno!

- Hey.
- Come come.

- This is Massimo.
- (together) Hello.

- Barbara.
- Pleasure.

- And Lara, from Turin.
- (Lara) Hello.

Wow, Bruno, I have to tell you,
this place is beautiful.

- I would never leave.
- Yes, come back in November, then we'll see.

I missed the mountain.

- Do you come from the mountain too?
- Yes.

(Barbara) Love, we have to buy
we too have a place like this, a ruin.

We renovate it.

- We make it more beautiful than yours.
- Yes, well.

- Enough, we're done with Turin.
- Yes.

We invite all the friends of Turin to come.

We make ourselves a nice ecological village
here in the middle of nature.

Nice is not it ?

Handsome.

It's just you from the city
you call it "nature".

It's so abstract in your mind
that even the name is abstract.

I get it, what do you call it?

(in Valle d'Aosta dialect) Here we say...
woods, pastures,

river, rock, path.

Things you can point with your finger,
things you can use.

(Barbara) Wait, you want to tell me

that one cannot simply enjoy
the beauty of nature ?

Yes, of course, and eat air.

(LAUGHS)
Struck and sunk.

We make good land,
we garden...

- (Barbara) Hmm.
- Handsome.

Then in winter how do you plan to do?

Look, there are meters of snow here.

Then what do you eat?
polenta and potatoes like our old ones?

All right, I don't call it "nature" anymore,
but you let me dream?

- Do you let me dream? I beg you !
- Make him dream.

Please, can you make me dream?

(SOME RUSSIAN)

What was it?

She doesn't kiss.

(Lara) Shit, it's freezing!

- (Bruno) Yes.
- (Lara) Oh God.

- (Lara) Are you coming?
- No.

- (Lara) Come on!
- No, go.

' (Lara) Come on!
- Go Go go !

- (Lara) Oh...

(Lara) Oh!

(Lara) Wow!
(PETER WHISTLES)

Hey

Hey

In the winter I work two jobs

and the summer I seek
to move forward as much as possible.

Then there's the mortgage, the bank...

I don't sleep much,

but it's worth it.

I'll make cheese like it used to be.

Now it's a little more difficult
with the new rules.

- When would you like to start?
- With the inarpa.

- Heh 2

Hurry up please
that we are in trouble.

- Ready?
- (Bruno) Hello, Peter.

- Ready?
<- I'm Bruno.

- Bruno!
<- Yes.

- Everything OK ?
<- Sure.

01:21:48,250
(Man) Come on!

01:21:53,583
- "Lara" ?
<- Yes, YES.

01:21:58,375
Move away ! You seem the case
to be on the phone at this hour?

- A minute !
- There's a mess!

01:22:08,083
<-She told me that she would like to work for us.
- Okay.

01:22:16,708
She is one who knows how to do it,
she has a hard head.

01:22:22,083
- What ?
<- It seemed to me, yes !

So ?

01:22:31,792
(TOCLING OF BELLS)
Oh! There is nothing between us.

01:22:37,375
There is nothing between us, we are friends.

<- Are you sure?
- Yes, absolutely sure.

<- Ah.
- Yes. No, really.

01:22:49,000
- Huh?
<- See you, come on. HI.

She is very delicate.
(BELLO)

Real ?

First of all, you have to make her relax.

Ah, here we are.

(BRUNO LAUGHS)

What's up ?

You said she needs to relax.

(Bruno) Hmm? Ah...

We have been lucky.

She knows she likes you.

Yes, it comes down well.

- HI.
- (Peter) Good morning.

Oh.

I help you.

(CHICKING HENS)

(Lara) Hey! Hey! Hey!

(LOO)
Come on, go. Very, very good.

I act as a shore.

Go Go go !

(Peter) Hey 1

Let's go. Let's go.

- Go.
- (Lara) Come on!

(Peter) The calf's stomach?

(Bruno) Without that piece,
cheese would not exist.

Think who the fuck found out.

- (Bruno) The wild man.
- "The Wild Man" ?

part man,
part animal and part tree,

like me.

- How do you say in dialect?

- "Omo servadzo".
- "Omo servadzo".

And the "servadza" woman?

(Bruno) she's fantastic.

She is strong, she never gets tired.

She takes care of the accounts too, thank God.
She hate that stuff.

(Bruno) she also brings down the tomes.

Also ? Why don't you wear them?

(Bruno) No.

The mountaineer is in the mountains.

The mountaineer's woman goes up and down.

You are sorry.

What ?

I wish I could have spent more time with you.

Here she never leaves.

Things change.

Hmm.

(Pietro) I'll wait for you outside.

(Pietro) They weren't there for Bruno
neither Saturdays nor Sundays in the mountain pastures.

Even if it took a long time,
he persisted in milking the cows by hand.

There was a right way in his life
to do everything.

The summer that followed, she Lara was pregnant.

I saw her grazing the cows,
alone, in the wind,

with a round belly and thick ankles.

She is increasingly a creature of the mountain.

The following year she went out to pasture
with a little girl in her arms.

Even if Bruno and Lara
they always invited me to stop there,

something pushed me
to say hello to that family

and to take the path to the Barma.

Sometimes I wanted to talk
with my father.

"Did you see, dad?"

"One of your children
has found its way to him."

"The other one doesn't."

I was tired of that old me.

I wanted to transform, evolve, leave

for a new, brand new Peter.

(SPEAK NEPAL)

(Peter) I was wondering
what would Bruno have thought of the houses,

how they built them

of the way of working the land,
in the hands of women,

of children's games
among the cattle.

Perhaps he would have thought that the hillbillies
of the world are one great people.

He would have liked the Himalayas too.

Heh! Heh! Heh!

There is Peter!

P: Hey 1

(Peter) Hello, Anita!

(VOICES IN AUDIBLE)

Hm...
(LARA LAUGHS)

Yak butter has a stronger flavor.

Yes, but they use it there
a little for everything,

for the lamps,
as a hair ointment

and in celestial burials.

There is not enough wood in Nepal
to cremate the corpses.

(Peter) They skin them and leave them
on a plateau to the vultures.

They come back after a few days
and find only the bones,

which they crush
and knead with butter and flour,

thus it becomes food for birds.

Thus the corpse disappears altogether.

What a horror !

What an image, the celestial burials!

(Bruno) Why "what a horror"?

Can you imagine your mother skinned

and torn apart like a...

- It's not that they don't eat it underground.
- At least you don't see it.

I like.
Bird feed and go, right?

- Anyone want another grappa?
- I.

No, I don't, it's already going to my head.

(Bruno) That means it's good.

(Francesca) What are you doing?

(INDISTENTIAL VOICES)

(Francesca) Ah, shall we mix a little here?

(Anita) Hmm.

- Oh!
- Let's give them too.

Already.

(Bruno) The women, Berto?

Around the world as I am,
as beautiful as those of the Alps?

Oh:

Heh!

Come on, we know they're after you,
now that you're famous.

"Famous"... A book they published for me.

- Don't torment him!
- I worry about my friend.

Yes ? You worry ?

Have you become a Buddhist monk?
(PETER LAUGHS)

Look at me, oh !

- That ?
- No.

-NO?
-NO!

-Uh!
- Hmm.

- Do you want to hear some bullshit?
- Yes, yes.

Does she bother you?

- When I was in Nepal...
- Hmm.

One stopped me and then mi...

One stopped me.

He told me: "You are doing
the tour of the eight mountains ?"

And then he did this, look.

And he begins to draw.

Ah...

He tells me ...
(BRUNO LAUGHS)

Tells me:

"This is the world for us."

"There are eight mountains and eight seas"

Ile in the middle..."

Do you see this?

It looks like an ass, but this...

This is the world for us

and at the center is this...

There's this big mountain, Mount Sumeru.

The question is this, listen to me.

The question is this:
"Who learned the most,"

"who has seen the eight mountains
and the eight seas"

"or whoever made it to the top
to Mount Sumeru?"

Answers.

(Bruno) I am that

which is on the mountain

and you're the one who made the rounds...

- Of the eight...
- Of the eight...

- Very good, good.
- Who win ?

I win.

Always.

I win.

goodnight grappa.

I sleep here, Bruno.

Good night.

Yes, I'll do it first.

- You know how we say here when you're sad?
- (Peter) How?

- "I find |a 9th"'
- "I find |a 9th"'

"How are you ?" "I find long". Stop.

(Bruno) That's when I started
to read that I understand

how many different ways there are
to say things.

If no... poor words, poor thoughts.

(Peter) Beautiful.

I'm happy
that you have found your words, Berto.

Yes, it's absurd.

There is a publisher who believes in you

and poof, everything changes.

I won't get rich, but I can stay
quiet in nepal for a while.

Do you like it there?

(Peter) Yes.

What ?

I met someone.

- (Bruno) Oh!
- Yes.

- I knew it.
- Did you know that ?

(Peter) Her name is Asmi.

He thinks she does the same job
which my mother does, more or less.

The other day I was thinking that he is absurd

as one finds
your place in the world

in the least unpredictable ways
than you believe.

Handsome.

(Bruno) I'm happy for you.

I don't know if I will come back next year.

It's time to milk.

"I will always carry the memory of

"Giovanni Guasti, August 1984."

(SONG: "AS LONG AS WE LAST"
BY DANIEL NORGREN)

(Peter) Then I found what I needed
be the last message from him.

"It would be nice to stay
up here all together,"

"without seeing anyone anymore,
without having to go down to the valley again."

(Peter) Here is the sentiment she had for him
made me dream of a home away from the world.

Only now did I understand
he that he had two fathers.

The first was the stranger
with whom I had lived 20 years in the city.

The second was the mountain father,

what I had only glimpsed,
yet he knew better.

This other father had left me
a ruin to rebuild,

but maybe he didn't know
which was another greatest gift.

Maybe we could rent
rooms, right?

Farmhouses work well.

We quit
to sell to the cooperative.

We sell directly to customers,
which is quite a difference.

- It takes longer.
- Certain.

Eh... Luckily Francesca is here.

I move with her car and she makes me
the pleasure of looking after Anita.

Without her I don't know what we would do, huh?

- Hmm.
- (Lara) Don't you agree?

Yes.

Now we have to do
some more effort.

We can't keep up with payments,

because they give us contributions,
but they are not enough.

In the bank they always tell us it's the crisis.

An asshole told me

that it was better if I asked for 20 million
on loan instead of 20,000 euros.

You understand ?
We are of no use to them.

We do it in the summer.

We are at the limit,
but we make it in that period,

we are self sufficient,

but in winter in Grana
it's a whole other story.

We have stable rent
and all other expenses.

How do we do it ?

We don't die of hunger,
we have a lot of cheese.

Hate ! There it is, when he doesn't know
what to do, laughs it off.

- Come on, Lara...
- What do you "give"? Do you hear me when I speak?

We have appalling debts,
open your eyes to reality!

- Shall we discuss now?
- God...

- We never see Peter.
- So what are we talking about?

- You decide.
- Yes, go...

This one lives on top of the mountains,

but he doesn't know the problems
of us mere mortals.

- You got yourself into this mess!
- Indeed.

- Huh.
- So don't get crazy about it.

(ANITA CRY)
Hm?

- I'm going.
- Stay there, I'll go.

(Lara) Love. Love.

(INDISTENTIAL VOICES)

(Lara) Shh.

(Bruno) She's right,

but it's not like talking fixes things.

How much do you need?

Too.

Way too much.

I'll help you.

I don't have much money
but I can stay here to work. Huh?

(Peter) I've decided, let's do this.

You already have a lot to think about.

- (Peter) Which ones?
- Your girlfriend.

- Don't worry, I'm glad...
- No !

(Peter) Even if sometimes I would
liked to talk to him when we were away,

Bruno and I felt very little,

as if our friendship
didn't need treatment.

Namaste.

- (Girl) Namaste.
- Namaste.

A computer ?

uh!

(THEY SPEAK NEPALISH)

Thank you.

(Peter) It was my mother
to give us news of each other.

She was used to living
among silent men.

(Bruno) They took away my pasture,
you know it ?

- Yes, yes !

Come on, I'll prepare.

(Peter) Maybe tomorrow
we can go to the lake.

(Bruno) It was beautiful, huh?

(Peter) It was beautiful, yes.

(Bruno) When I woke up
early in the morning to milk

and they slept,

it was the time of day
which I preferred.

I was under the impression
to have everything under control,

to take care of them.

(Bruno) Stupid, huh?

It's not stupid.

It's stupid because it's impossible
really caring about someone else.

When are you going to visit Anita? At Christmas ?

No, not at Christmas.

(Peter) And when?

Maybe in the spring.

Maybe in the summer.

What's the difference ?

It's all the better if she stays with her mother.

- You are a good father, Bruno.
- (Bruno) Hmm.

(Bruno) What shall I do, bring it here?

See there's a world out there.

You invented this border yourself.

- (Bruno) Yes?
- Yes, in your head.

Find yourself a normal job,
at least for the winter.

Berto, do you remember whose son I am?

- Yes.
- (Bruno) Hmm.

About your asshole father.

(Pietro) And now what are you doing?

You are abandoning your daughter,
like he did with you.

Go away.

(Peter) What?

Go away.

(Bruno) Go away.

What are you doing ?

(Woman, radio) On the Alpine reliefs
heavy snow is expected

over 1000 meters.

- HI !
- Hey there.

(Lara) she Goes to kindergarten already.

At first I don't tell you,
a struggle to make them follow the rules!

But now she's getting a little better.

I would like to help him.

You can't help
one who does not want to be helped.

We could have found other solutions,
you know, other jobs.

They were looking for people here at the chair lift.
Nothing.

For Bruno there is no other possible life.

At some point, I realized that Anita and I
we were much less important

of his mountain,

whatever it means.

Sometimes love wears out slowly,
other times it dies suddenly.

No?

Are you asking me?

How is it in Nepal?

Well, right?

I've gone too far,
i had to stay here.

(Lara) Nope.

(Bruno) Bert!

Heh!

Ah!

What the fuck are you doing?

Are you OK ?

Not bad, huh?
I've been training for a week.

You are dumb. Yes.

(Peter) Wow.

Ah... Fuck you.

- It doesn't fit anymore.
- Here.

Bubbles, bubbles, bubbles!

I'm sorry about the other time.

Me too.

I'm glad you're back.

We're still friends, aren't we?

Fuck you, go.

(Bruno) I was angry.

I was angry, because it's not the fault
no one, it's just my fault.

What did I want to do, the entrepreneur ?

I had to build myself a cabin like this
and bring up two cows.

This was supposed to be my life.

I don't know anything about money.

At some point in life, one has to
stop and ask yourself questions, right?

Say to yourself, "Well, this I can do,
This no."

I am capable
to live alone in the mountains.

- (Bruno) It's not little, isn't it?
- It's not little, no.

Berto, don't worry about me.

This mountain has never hurt me.

- (Lara) They called me from Grana.

Okay.

02:17:23,500
No.

No.

(Peter) I said no, but I was lying.

I wondered who had known him
besides me on Earth

and who had known me besides Bruno.

If he was only ours
what we had shared,

what was left of it
now that one of the two was gone?

Then it occurred to me
that there was a house up in the mountains

with a hole in the roof.

That didn't give her long to live on

and I felt that it no longer served any purpose,

because in some lives there are mountains
to which it is not possible to return.

which is at the center of all the others,
