- "Salt and Bread" introduces us to the people of a neighborhood, an ouzo distillery and a shipyard. What they all have in common is their love for what they do. Every summer, the Yannakelos family makes frumenty and the whole neighborhood gathers to make the "chachles", as they used to do in Greek villages once upon a time. They help each other, sharing the work that has to be done and laughing; because that's the way of living they learnt and preserve, passing it on the next generation. Sophia Konstantinelli, the only female distiller in Lesvos, continues the tradition of her family and makes ouzo with grapes and figs from the neighboring villages. Takis Psaradellis keeps on building and repairing wooden boats, despite the increase of plastic ones, that "are not compatible with our sea", as he says. "Salt and Bread", is part of a series shot in Lesvos, during the financial and migrant crisis under the title Silent Path. The series is filmed with a poetic approach, without seeking the classic documentation. It deliberately follows the natural course of the meetings with the characters, without aiming at a pre-determined outcome, leaving space for emotions and the unexpected. The aim of the series is to give a voice to everyday people who live their lives quietly, but know how to share, laugh, create, love, endure and keep on going with dignity, preserving a way of living in harmony with their environment. This is the "intangible cultural heritage" of Greece of Europe, the culture of everyday life of ordinary people with knowledge, practices, and traditions, that are often deeply rooted in time, and to this day still define our collective memory and identity.
