Synopsis

A 6,000-year-old love story in which the filmmaker tries to understand the profound and often troubled relationship between olive oil and the people of the Mediterranean.

It is a complicated romance — sometimes funny, sometimes tragic — that is constantly evolving in a region that includes some of the poorest and most conflicted areas of Europe and the Middle East.
