Cento passi per volare

THE BREATH OF THE MOUNTAIN, THE COURAGE TO SPREAD YOUR WINGS

Lucio has always experienced the mountains with his eyes shut, and he sees things no-one else notices. It is in the mountains that Lucio, who lost his sight as a young child, crosses paths with a baby eagle kidnapped by poachers. All seems lost. But the mountain hides many clues, which can reveal the truth to someone who knows how to listen for them – someone like Lucio.
