Guest Country

Nestled in the Alps, the Dolomite Mountains in northern Italy was designated as a UNESCO Natural heritage site in 2009 and will host the 2026 Winter Olympics along with Milan. It is considered to be the birthplace and the heart of Italy¡¯s mountain culture. And at its core are the Club Alpino Italiano(CAI), Trento Film Festival, and the Museo Nazionale Della Montagna Cai-Torino.

This year¡¯s Guset Country section features 12 films, and 8 of them are rooted on Italy¡¯s rich mountain traditions. There are also 4 films by female directors who are raising their voices within a culture still strongly influenced by Catholic tradition and patriarchy. We hope they will provide insight into Italy¡¯s diverse aspects.​
