Agosto Degasperiano 2017 (August with De Gasperi 2017)

"The one who drags his feet in the mud keeping his eyes at the stars, is the only hero, he’s the only one who truly lives"
Eugenio Montale

This verse by Eugenio Montale has inspired this year Agosto Degasperiano 2017 - (August with De Gasperi 2017), the annual Festival taking place in August in Valsugana, promoted by the Fondazione trentina Alcide De Gasperi and by many local institutions.
First inaugurated in 2015, the Festival this year will introduce us to women and men of our present who are evidence of the modernity of Degasperi’s message. Theirs are new stories and different experiences, yet those persons live with the same legendary intensity and confidence in the ability of man to be the tool of a Good that is of everybody and for everybody. 

Just like the great personalities of the past, the protagonists of the Festival are able to drag their feet in the mud while keeping their eyes at the stars.
