At times the side effects were as bad as the sickness, Manfred says. When a doctor told him in his thirties, that he would never get rid of asthma and he had to live with it, he had enough of it. Deep inside Manfred arose the wish to change his life. Shortly after he decided to participate in and finish an Ironman competition: A combination of 180km cycling, a Marathon and 4km swimming.

What was the Crown of Aragon? What was not? The shadow of the myth extends over the Crown of Aragon.

Through the voice of a historian for each ancient territory of the Crown of Aragon, we show how the dynasties of Aragon, which arose between the mountains, and of the Casal de Barcelona, came together and came to dominate the Mediterranean, in a Europe controlled by family lobbies that functioned in the manner of large corporations of the time: dynasties.

Director:

Simone Vrech

This movie is an innovative docufilm about history of Lombard with an interaction between cinema and historical disclosure. It is focused on the story of Alboin, the first Lombard king arrived in Italy with his population and the foundation of the village of Romans. This village was an important military garrison of the Duchy of Friul and also it is important for the archeological finds (one of the largest Italian Lombard necropolises). On 551 A.D. after a great victory against Gepids, the figure of Alboin as hero strongly emerged. Years of glory and deeds followed him until his fateful fate in Verona on 572 A.D., when he was killed after only few years of reigns, then his myth born. In the midst of the events of this legendary king will be shown innovative images and strong emotional impact, where you will see how the Lombard people lived in Romans, an important crossroads of the Friulian plain where men and women developed a village that still exists.
