  1. #JamesGray is the last great #novelist of #American #cinema,” said #GionaANazzaro, #Locarno’s artistic director. “His #films form a rich body of work that echoes the #Jewish #diaspora, #filmnoir, and #Russian as well as #NorthAmerican #literature. A #filmmaker with a humanist sensibility and profound #cinephile knowledge, he has experimented with genres such as #sciencefiction and adventure while retaining his own #artistic identity and voice. Celebrating James #Gray at the Locarno #Film Festival means paying tribute to a unique and unmistakable #artist, a filmmaker who speaks the language of #cinema and knows how to pass it on to future generations.”

  2. Climbing the wall of Sambuco dam with @biglepas. We were all alone and the temperature was perfect – both quite unexpected for a Sunday with 32 °C in Locarno!

    It's a fun, easy route, ideal for showing someone the basics of multi-pitch climbing. And as a bonus, one can abseil down the whole 102 m of the wall afterwards 😊

  3. The highest point on the #Centovalli🇨🇭#Vigezzina 🇮🇹 line from #Locarno to #Domodossola: S. Maria Maggiore, where we saw #SSIF unit ABe8/8 #22 #Ticino today. The unit, built in the 1950s, was working train #R262, the afternoon regional from #Re. And there’s a nice train station café.
