Pelican’s Watch

A small community on the island of Santorini has a unique duty: that of preserving the tradition of vine growing. We follow two vine growers and one wine maker, during a year of work in the vineyards and the winery. Nikos Pelekanos, Christos Dalmiras and Paris Sigalas are facing issues, due not only to the current financial climate: the Santorini vineyard may be the oldest in Europe, but it is threatened with extinction, compromised by the more profitable and ever-growing activity of construction and tourism. In the end, and despite all obstacles, the community achieves a harmonious coexistence through a commonly shared reality: that of vine growing and wine drinking.
