In Italy there's a strong tradition of working with wood. In this documentary we start in the Forest of Violins in Paneveggio. Each tree is specially selected and felled for its quality grain. The forest is never over-harvested, with a mindfulness of preserving the forest and the traditional trees that are used to make the world's finest violins and other objects of art. You will be introduced to fascinating Cremona, where the best violin makers work. Visit Schools, and witness local traditions being carved, like the Krampus masks and other works of art surrounded by the beautiful landscapes of the region.

Produced and Directed by Ardesia Media
