Provincetown Film Art Series: The Eight Mountains
The Provincetown Film Art Series, now in its 18th year, is sponsored by the Provincetown Film Society (PFS) and Provincetown Art Association and Museum (PAAM) and curated and hosted by film scholar Howard Karren. Films in the series, both recent and vintage, are chosen around central themes, but the focus is on films about artists and creativity, and films that are themselves works of art.
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 10: reception @ 11:30 am; screening @ 12:30 pm
The Eight Mountains (2022)
Written and directed by Felix van Groeningen and Charlotte Vandermeersch. Based on the novel by Paolo Cognetti. With Luca Marinelli and Alessandro Borghi. 2 hours, 27 minutes. In Italian, subtitled.
This beautiful film is a wise, bittersweet and sweeping saga of two friends — Italian boys who meet in an alpine village outside Milan. One is a summer visitor from the city and the other is from a local dairy farming family. They grow up together, grow apart, then rejoin each other as adults — a journey of profound life lessons.
