Jan 01, 1965
Chronique filmée par le cinéaste de montagne Mario Fantin, de l'expédition 1964-1965 de l'alpiniste italien Guido Monzino sur les sommets du Hoggar dans le Sahara algérien avec les ascensions du Garet el Djenoun, du Tizouyag Nord, du Saouinan et de l'Iharen. Les chaînes de montagnes du désert du Hoggar se révèlent plus complexes et plus intéressantes que la plupart des alpinistes ne le soupçonnent alors à l'époque.

Preludio Alpino Al K2

Jan 01, 1954
With Preludio alpino al K2 we see the preparation for the Italian expedition to the second highest peak in the world. The men who would make history meet on Plateau Rosa, to work together among those spectacular peaks. It was also a dress rehearsal for Fantin, who had never ventured so high up with a movie camera.

Costa D’avorio

Jan 01, 1965
Costa d’Avorio immerses us in an entirely different scenario [from Fantin's previous film] and gives us an up-close look at another one of Fantin’s interests: ethnography, which here focuses on ritual dances encountered in each village (the expedition was funded by Augusto Fantoni, the Italian king of spring mattresses). (Andrea Meneghelli)
Kilimandjaro, Monarca Africano
1
In the spirit of a 'mountaineering safari', four Italians fly to Nairobi, the capital of Kenya and a compulsory base for both hunters of the great reserves and climbers of the great African mountains. Crossed the land of the Masai, rich in game, they, in fact, climb, in four days, up to the top of Kibo, the crater off that, with its 5895 meters, is the highest point of Kilimandjaro and all Africa. After two days of descent, they finally enter the Serengeti National Park, inside the vast crater of the Ngorongoro.
