Joao Pedro and Deiola protagonists of the short film dedicated to the “Land of the centenarians”, just like the team most loved by the Sardinians
CAGLIARI. “Life in Sardinia is perhaps the best a man can wish for.” Word of Joao Pedro, coach of fifteen goals, a column of Cagliari for seven years. And then the sentence of Alessandro Deiola, born in San Gavino: “The elderly are our greatest treasure”. Pronounced in Sardinian.
These are some of the passages (the first is a phrase by Fabrizio De Andrè, a Genoese bewitched by Sardinia) of the video released this morning by Cagliari on the occasion of the celebrations for “Sa die de sa Sardigna”. The dedication is for the “Land of the centenarians”, just like Cagliari, the team most loved by the Sardinians.
The day of April 28 is in fact dedicated to the feast of the island people who remember the so-called “Sardinian Vespers”, that is the popular uprising of April 28, 1794 with which the Piedmontese and the viceroy Balbiano left Cagliari following the refusal of the government Turin to satisfy the requests of the titular island of the Kingdom of Sardinia.
The video is a mini story that alternates nature, history, traditions with the images of the «Humanitarian Society – Cineteca Sarda». The initiative is part of the campaign conceived together with the Department of Tourism, Crafts and Commerce of the Region to promote the beauties of Sardinia and its peculiarities. (HANDLE).
