Eccentric, solitary, a "bear of the mountains" able to deeply feel the magnetic power of the Alps but the pulsating energy encased in the big cities of the nineteenth century as well. Giovanni Segantini (1858-1899) was one of the greatest Italian pointillist, an extraordinary painter with a wild and rough character yet being poetical, graceful and thorough. Born in Arco di Trento of humble origins and with a tortuous life path, Segantini will be one of the most authentic painters of the Italian nineteenth century even if he passed away at the young age of 41. Across the streets, the villages, the valleys and the alpine landscape that influenced the work and the soul of the artist, the docu-film directed by Francesco Fei surrenders the portrait of a complex man retracing the phases of his life, showing his artwork, the colors and the artistic choices while questioning the thoughts and the memories of whom had known and studied the painter from Trentino. The performance of Filippo Timi who gives a voice and face to Segantini in some historical reconstructions purposely realized for this film, will unravel the intensity of the letters signed by the artist and his feelings.
