ADVANCE SCREENING
In this lush, emotionally intelligent adaptation of Paolo Cognetti’s prize-winning novel, 11-year-old Pietro spends his summers in the village of Grana, where he becomes fast friends with local boy Bruno. The two reunite each summer, reconnecting again as men when Pietro’s father dies, leaving him a plot of land high on a Grana mountainside. Winner of the Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival, THE EIGHT MOUNTAINS is a deeply affecting ode to friendship and an epic exploration of masculinity, obligation, and our connection to the natural world. Film Center exclusive.
