Como corre Elisa

About This Movie

So, 'Como corre Elisa' is a documentary that weaves a lovely tapestry of resilience and spirit. It follows Elisa Forti, at 82, gearing up for this 25 km run through her picturesque hometown by Lake Di Como. The pacing is gentle yet compelling, allowing you to soak in the serene beauty of the landscape while getting a deep dive into her motivations and backstory. You really feel her determination, and there's a raw, unfiltered quality to her journey that makes it distinct. What’s interesting is how the film captures not just the physical challenge, but also the emotional landscape of aging and ambition. It’s not flashy, just real and heartfelt, which feels refreshing in a world full of excess.
