DEATH OF A MOUNTAIN is a testament to the contemporary French-Italian mountain border. We lean on the words of a woman who tells us of her mountain, her connection to this territory from her birth to its disappearance. The woman dwells on memories of childhood to escape the present, a war that spreads on her mountain and on which she is forced to take part. She feels betrayed by the idea that mountains live forever. Nonetheless, she fights. Where do mountains go if we allow them to die?
