Average life expectancy is increasing, and more people than ever are reaching old age. They are more active than their predecessors and they carry out intense social work after retirement. Erri De Luca recounts his own, his training and how he maintains his physique thanks to rock climbing, even solo. He reads on a daily basis, takes care of the land and gives importance to play, a few friendships, the outdoors and regular hours. "No one has been old before me," he says, realising that no previous seniority can guide him. Ultimately, he affirms that this age he is experiencing is the best of his life. However, it is not a gentle stroll, it is a continuous uphill battle.

Screenings
L'età sperimentale is part of this program:
Director
Marco Zingaretti
Marco Zingaretti began experimenting with directing techniques with some self-produced short films and video clips in 2011: Canon 5D and post-production in his own bedroom were the tools of the trade. The production house Soul Film project proceeded at the same pace as his training and led to the making of his first full-length documentary ALÉ, the short film WAH!TAH, finalist at Cortinametraggio and the miniseries 58BPM.
