The film, selected by major European festivals including Trento Film Festival 2025, has never before been made available online. It will finally be accessible on YouTube, shared with all mountain enthusiasts and perfectly aligned with the brand’s philosophy.

The film: an authentic mountain story

“Transcardus – A BalkanSki Story”, directed by Elisa Bessega, tells the story of the first ski traverse of the Sharr (or Scardus) mountain range, located on the border between Kosovo and North Macedonia.
The film originates from a project by freerider, ski mountaineer, and mountain guide Enrico Mosetti, known as “Il Mose” (Ferrino athlete), who is the main protagonist of the story. Joining Mose on the expedition, and in the film, are his friends Matteo Sarto (snowboard instructor), Lorenzo Barutta (film editor and second camera), and director Elisa Bessega.

The film follows the team through a week of demanding ascents, exhilarating descents, pauses in remote mountain villages scattered across the Scardus valleys, snow-covered bivouacs, and starry nights, crossing a remote territory where human traces are rare and silence becomes part of the landscape.

It tells a story that conveys an intense, contemplative experience, able to reveal both the strength and delicacy of places still largely unexplored. It highlights a way of living the mountains that embraces slowness, attentive listening to the land, and meaningful relationships with the people who inhabit it.

Through encounters and stories gathered along the way, the film paints an authentic portrait of Balkan mountain communities, deeply connected to their landscapes and traditions.

The film also offers a reflection on winter tourism, showing how it is possible to explore snowy environments with respect, avoiding overtourism and paying close attention to the fragility of mountain ecosystems.
