At the opening, with Nicolas Hulot's crew we will travel to South America among tribes that have preserved their ancient traditions with their villages and their shamans, who however are now facing a future with a strong capacity for attraction, but which is undermining their environment and their culture, first in Colombia and then in the heart of Brazil. While Barbara Bernardini and Marco Visalberghi went to California to UC Irvine to interview a group of researchers who are studying a group of "supergrandparents" who have physiological parameters equal to those of 40-year-olds. Alberto Angela will be in Verona, and will reveal the magic and secrets of the arena, from a Roman amphitheater to a modern stage. For the column How to do it, Piero Angela will host Prof. Luca Pani, director general of the Medicines Agency, who will report on a recent report that analyzes Italians and drugs: which ones, how many, how and why they are used.
