Oliva

15,00 

A family that has tried to adapt to the passage of time, while keeping the olive harvest alive. Three generations make their contribution, pick the fruit, care for the trees. Traditionally the reward involves olive oil, which is abundant and of high quality, but more recently it involves keeping the tradition alive. For valuing the life work of previous generations.

Rui Pedro Esteves, an urban boy, who joined a family with rural roots, portrays years of olive picking that led to the origins of this project.

Among the fields, buckets and burlap, pruning and gathering, leaves and fruit, Oliva appears.
