Resilience is a short documentary that follows Federico Romano, a snowboarder born at the end of the world, on a journey that connects the mountains of Patagonia with the Alps. Through uncertainty, sacrifice, and the challenges of pursuing a dream far from home, the film explores how resilience is not about never falling, but about always finding a reason to get back up. More than a story about sport, it is a reflection on identity, perseverance, and the search for a place where one can truly feel free.
