AT THE BOTTOM OF THE MILL
A documentary by Massimo D'Alessandro and Nicoletta Retico
Luigi Casati is one of the most highly trained cave divers in the world. His is the current record for cave diving with the -186 meters depth at the Laghetto di Subiolo and -180 meters at the White Elephant Cave. We now follow him on his third exploratory expedition to the "Mill" Resurgence in the Castelcivita Caves complex, in search of a continuation that will finally provide an answer to the complex hydrology of this spring.
Our camera crew follows him with two videosub operators down to -90 meters from where Luigi, with an underwater scooter on which we installed a camera, continues to descend into the resurgence filming for the first time even the deepest and most complex part of the dive. He resurfaces after 5 hours and as he tells his "hot" impressions to his trainer and diving partner, Jean Jacques Bolanz, our curiosity to see the images taken from the scooter is irrepressible...
