Synopsis
Elderly residents of Eleochori, Messinia, recount their efforts to rebuild their village after the devastating earthquake of 1986. As they share their stories, the film captures the contrast between the village's rich history and the encroaching modernity that has led many to leave for larger cities like Kalamata. The documentary reflects on the enduring connection to the past while illustrating the challenges faced by a community in decline.
