SINOPSYS / SINOPSIS

La verdadera historia del olivar tradicional en España contada por quienes mejor la conocen, expertos en oleicultura, cambio climático y agricultores.

El Paisaje del olivar (2021) es el protagonista del territorio mediterráneo y es mostrado en este documental a ras de suelo y a vista de pájaro, en diferentes localizaciones singulares de la Península Ibérica. Desde el Somontano de Barbastro en Aragón, hasta el sur de Andalucía, con un mar de olivos, en las sierras de montaña o en las vegas y riberas. Un territorio humanizado que, durante siglos, ha ido esculpiendo la historia y esto, no solo dando una identidad característica a nuestro paisaje, sino perfilando la tradición y cultura gastronómicas del Mediterráneo.


El olivar y su fruto son símbolos de fuente de energía, luz y vida, aunque principalmente, de emoción, historias y esfuerzos por conservar el patrimonio heredado de quienes lo viven de cerca y están implicados en la conservación y promoción de la cultura del aceite. Por ello, a través de este documental, narran en primera persona qué significa para cada uno de ellos esa convivencia. Proponemos un recorrido emocional sobre cómo sienten su paisaje, cómo lo viven, así como los principales problemas y retos a los que se enfrentan acerca de la rentabilidad futura del mismo y las oportunidades que no deben dejar pasar.

The true story of the traditional olive grove in Spain as told by those who know it best, experts in olive growing, climate change and farmers.

The olive grove landscape (2021) is the protagonist of the Mediterranean territory and is shown in this documentary at ground level and from a bird's eye view, in different unique locations on the Iberian Peninsula. From the Somontano de Barbastro in Aragon, to the south of Andalusia, with a sea of olive trees, in the mountain ranges or in the meadows and riverbanks. A humanised territory that, for centuries, has been sculpted by history, not only giving a characteristic identity to our landscape, but also shaping the gastronomic tradition and culture of the Mediterranean.

The olive grove and its fruit are symbols of a source of energy, light and life, but above all, of emotion, stories and efforts to preserve the heritage inherited from those who live it closely and are involved in the conservation and promotion of olive oil culture. Therefore, through this documentary, they narrate in first person what this coexistence means to each of them. We propose an emotional journey about how they feel about their landscape, how they live it, as well as the main problems and challenges they face regarding its future profitability and the opportunities that must not be missed.
