A series of 12 original half-hour documentaries, presenting traditional arts and techniques in the 21st century, filmed in various parts of Greece. The young protagonist Christos Zacharof travels from Corfu and Paramythia to Lesvos and Patmos, Geraki, Laconia and Lagkadia, Arcadia, to Alexandroupoli and the villages in the Rhodope mountains, places where economically viable traditional professions are still practiced, most of which are included in the UNESCO list of intangible cultural heritage.
Christos attempts to learn the secrets of marble craftsmanship, wooden shipbuilding, silversmithing, or knitting in the places where they are practiced, working alongside the craftsmen. Along with Christos, the viewer of the documentary also experiences the struggle, difficulties, and peculiarities of each art!

Today: «The art of stone in Lagadia of Arcadia»
Episode 10

The stone craftsmen of Lagadia are known throughout the Peloponnese, as they have never stopped building or repairing houses, churches and bridges. In the new episode of Meet the Craftsmen, Christos participates in the 4th Workshop of Traditional Art of Stone, organized by the association of friends of traditional architecture "Blossoming Stones" in Lagadia, Arcadia. His purpose is to learn the path of the stone from the quarry where it is mined to the construction site where it is used to build. In between, he will learn from the craftsmen how to cut and process it, so that it arrives almost ready to the construction site, while he will also discover old building techniques that are no longer used. Together with Christos, the viewer will get to know ways of traditional processing of the stone, but also the special relationship of the people of Lagadia with it, which still produces unique works but also highly skilled young craftsmen!
