Idan ta matia mas giortes

Images of the Mediterranean made of bread, oil and wine. In a single meal the history, geography, economy, climate civilisation and peoples of the Mediterranean. For centuries now the olive, the wine and the wheat have been bathed by the sun of this great interior sea. A close-up view of threshing fields, olive presses, mills, wine-presses, traces of an architecture that is centuries old.
A civilisation that spans as a common homeland even the most seemingly different worlds such as Greece, Turkey and Italy where the Greek-Orthodox world, the Islamic East and the Roman Catholic West have supposedly, established a history of "difference".
The Mediterranean emerges as a sea of convergence, of confluence, that does not however ignore the dynamics of diversity, that provides room for both innovation and tradition and that above all persist in celebrating after every good grape harvest, after the reaping is over, after the olives have been picked.
