Days Together
In today's modern world, when almost everything is done with the touch of a button, the citizens of the Cinque Terre of Italy still make Sciacchetra wine by hand, as their ancestors have done for over 1000 years. They also welcome over three million tourists annually into their homes, restaurants, and shops, something their ancestors could have never foreseen. A modern-day fight for sustainable tourism, cultural preservation, and environmental balance teeters on the edge of survival as the villages face an uncertainty marked by political change, natural disaster, and conflicting goals. Vendemmia documents the present day challenges of the Cinque Terre through both the eyes of its extraordinary residents and also those standing on the outside, anxiously observing the area's rapid fire transformation, and asks the essential question - Is it possible to preserve the future without sacrificing the past? —Sharon Boeckle & Krista Lee Weller
