IN THE TREE OF TEA

Original title: ΔΡΟΜΟΥΣ ΤΟΥ ΤΣΑΓΙΟΥ, ΣΤΟΥΣ

Documentary | 2019 | Col | 27m


Summary

The documentary is a tour of China's ancient cultural capitals. It focuses on the gastronomic identity of the southern regions of Guangzhou, Xitang (Venice, China) and Chinese hospitality, which stems from centuries-old culture. An important point of reference is the street and the history of tea, the place where it is traditionally made and the utensils used. In the tea ritual, it is important to perform the ceremony with all one's heart, with respect for the guests, with harmony, purity and calm. We would say that this ceremony emphasizes the importance of the spirit, the desire for material simplicity and spiritual freedom.
