When Tomatoes Met Wagner

Documentary about a community trying to revive commerce in their tiny Greek village by marketing their organic tomato goods as trendy delicacies.

"Aleco and Christo are cousins who run an organic farm in rural Greece, growing tomatoes with the help of some hard-working old ladies – and classical music blasted across the fields. Packing their lovingly grown produce as expensive specialty meals for overseas consumers, they struggle to compete in a trendy market. Marianna Economou's documentary is an engaging, funny and melancholy study of hope amidst financial crisis." (Sydney Film Festival)
