2024意大利纪录片·传记
What was downhill skiing in the 1970s? But more importantly, what did the Italian national ski team represent in those years? Two questions that can only intertwine into a single answer: a success the size and strength of an Avalanche, which could only be the "valanga azzurra", Blue like the team's color. Under the direction of a man of exceptional intuitions like Mario Cotelli, the Azzurri's technical director, and in the wake of a champion like Gustavo Thoeni, the team that would become the strongest in Italian history was born. In that period, Italy made the rules, imposing a style that dominated the "circo bianco". An unrepeatable cycle that would forever change the history of the sport in the country.
A sporting hurricane, which the direction of Giovanni Veronesi brings to life through the voices of the protagonists, anec-dotes and behind-the-scenes footage and images of the time, in 4 episodes that will retrace its entire trajectory, starting from its dawn and ending with its inevitable sunset.
