Fabiano is haunted by nightmares. They are a reflection of his life as the heir of his father’s small-scale agricultural business, located in an isolated valley of Southern Switzerland. He owns fifty goats and eight cows and is trying his best to produce the special alp cheese that first made his hippie parents back in the 1980s. But nothing is going the way it should... He is in debt, the alpine hut that he rents for the summer is dilapidated, and the goats cheese business is no longer profitable. His thoughts wander back to a fatal accident occurred the previous year to a Macedonian illegal worker. His death is haunting him, because he feels that he is at least in part responsible for it. Fabiano is not exactly in a good place to start a family, but will be a father soon. His girlfriend Eva is expecting – and is hoping to fulfill her dreams of a simple life surrounded by nature and animals. But how can they build a life together in such difficult circumstances?

Peloponnisos International Documentary Film Festival

This is a documentary film festival with emphasis on international documentaries - with tributes, parallel events, educational zone, seminars and masterclasses.

The main Festival takes place in Kalamata, during the last ten days of January and part of the program is screened in 8 other cities of Peloponnese. Of all the actions during the year, our goal is to get the unfamiliar audience in touch with the cinematographic documentary genre. Our priority, is for the young audience to get in touch with the documentary and get involved actively and creatively with it, giving them the first motive to create their own productions.

Also through the festival we want to upgrade the cultural life of the wider region, to give the opportunity to a large group of people who have no access to cinemas or other major festivals to know the domestic and international Film production.
