so she still tends to her goats every morning. but for the past 2 years, she's no longer been alone. now. she has not got to in colorado at her side. well yeah, that's clive monica comes from a small village in south western molly, where he worked as a shepherd and farmer that was before he came to europe as a refugee or something. okay, monica, you can start. oh is that your tele, these are my beautiful one at least. yes, you're pretty sure. let me really pretty, pretty the submitting come find even live in the countryside. you need animals, you say, especially if you want to be self sufficient to association. so they're important for us the, for the land on to the, they provide us with food and obviously they need something to live on themselves.
8:18 pm
but they give so much that down. but rosella is now 63 and can no longer manage all the work on her own. monica came just at the right time. ro settler met him 2 years ago at a refugee shelter. she'd long been on the lookout for someone to help her, but hadn't found anyone willing to live and work with her in this remote location. montana is great. he's so kind very respectful and not afraid of hard work. get on the but the she thought he also knows what he's doing me to. and in fact he actually likes being here because it's so much like his own country. so he feels at home. we, we work really well together in the calabria region is suffering from a prolonged drought. mock us sometimes walks with the goats for half a day to find food for them. moving
8:19 pm
from place to place and working hard in search of a better future is a way of life that monica is no stranger to when he left molly, he got by doing odd jobs 1st, and algeria then in the chair and then in libya. but his goal was to get to europe . after 6 years, he finally made it onto a refugee boat that took him across the mediterranean to sicily. later he came to calabria. to them on the interpreter. i mean, i like it, it's nice. but the problem is that there's nobody here spends that they don't want to live, see it on in. so it's just the 2 of us in pen to dot to load. so it's not easy. as you know, there are hardly any jobs in calabria and few prospect use. unemployment stands at 37 percent the highest in italy. many just want to leave. but for a mock up,
8:20 pm
this very place has provided the opportunity he was looking for the most satellite. meanwhile has carried home the fresh goat milk. back to the village, where no one else lives. printed 19 o is one of 20 so called ghost towns in calabria of italy's poorer south is strewn with deserted villages. when rosella 1st came to pinta dot too low, the village had already been uninhabited for 10 years that was back in 1983 when she was in her early twenties and searching for a life of freedom and independence the pacific i'm from this house will collapse soon the roof is already gone. and when i
8:21 pm
arrived here, the house was all still intact and there was another here to the village of pendant dotsie low dates back to the year 640 b c. after several land slides, the village was finally a band and in the early 19 seventies, all the remaining residents had to leave their homes. the federal summer came with the intention of staying right from the start. she gave up her job is a postal worker in your milan and left her own life behind her. unlimited. as many people are shocked when they hear that i live in an abandoned village. many are so afraid of being lonely. they even fear silence. but others admire me because i lead such a simple life with you on the view that and somehow i'm keeping this place alive. otherwise it would really be a ghost child or even if i use like
8:22 pm
a single set of david, i'm in some place. if i'm past month on the slopes around the village, rosella harvests, wild herbs, she calls this area her secret garden. a non salt kick. so i'm, yes, you can say what drove me to come here. there are some things where even 40 years later is you still wonder why you did them? but what i like about this place most is the incredible environment. every moment is a moment of ecstasy, of meditation because it's so beautiful. it's my fault. so, you know, maybe i came back here to inspire a young people to work with their hands again, not to join you. i looked at the coffee, she got the kids that i've always found it satisfying to work hard seal and it was what if i did them and then see the fruits of my labor afterwards. so i think got, if it will probably dump them in a little bit how they will fall press so this will be stopped. but the drought of recent years has made her life more difficult. she couldn't have
8:23 pm
a vegetable garden that needs a lot of water. and so rosella has learned to live from the little that nature provides her with the concept rosella. this is her home. when she 1st moved here, she persuaded the previous owners to sell her the house for a good price. it's time for lunch, garlic, rocket salad, and some dandy lion rosella. doesn't need much more clear. we don't have the we do have punched uh oh, it was all mixed in the sab looking vegetables, which is all like in harvest, in this desert landscape. and add a few old potatoes mock
8:24 pm
up, the room is right next door. he has its own cooking facilities. tenants prepared some meat and liver from one of the goats served with a spicy sauce and cruise goose. the battalion cuisine is still not really his thing . dominican i love cooking my data and molly and food is the best of my god. mama is almost obsessed with cooking with you. you. i always tell him you were a real chef. can you really? i think it's also a way for him to reconnect with his homeland. i'm the familiar chase of homes micah, hurry up. i'm ready. you to and they made cook separately, but they still eat together. one of
8:25 pm
the conversation at the table is limited. monica can't yet speak enough italian, but i want to try mind. no, no, no. that they won't stand with them. yeah, we often disagree or he wants to do things his way. and i want to do the my way. he's young and i'm old to that site. at some stage, the older generation has to make way for the young use, the same thing on e. m. chaney, the electronic low spot to joe. then target the school will start again. today they may not share their food or always agree, but rosella and monica have decided they will be there for one another. the order today to avoid debbie pressure. but again, i think with zillow also sees that i feel at home here. and that's what i bought,
8:26 pm
that's why i gives my, oh, when i'm working night about the item that i brought it to me. it's like working for my own model going through, but any one of them. so i do my best to know the auto degree. i was just it's an arrangement that benefits them. both. monica has a work contract wages and a new home. and rosa la can continue living here in her own personal paradise because of his health, the twice a week. nocka rides his bike to a neighboring town where he's learning a tell you and he never got to go to school . and molly hopefully go. but 1st he has to carry his bike until he reaches the road. i
8:27 pm
don't know 5, i don't. i like going to school different a month and a large occasion gives you freedom and independence to get an hour from now. sometimes i still feel lonely here because i don't speak the language well, but that's what we're, you know, it's difficult to communicate. and now let me hope that by going to school, i will understand more and more italian and things will change to a new one. with the difficulty of in the after monica landed in sicily in 2018, he's been 2 years being moved from one refugee shelter to another. his residency status has still not been clarified to this thing. but here in calabria, monica has regained some of his freedom. we may see a boy you never know what to expect when he come to a new place. maybe it would be the same if a european who had only
8:28 pm
a vague idea of molly went to live the it's usually not what you saw it. and that's how it was to me. the evening classes are free of charge and a real opportunity for monica knowledge of italian and a permanent job with rosella or exactly what he needs to be granted. an official visa, the living brought out a smoker really needs to learn italian and get a drivers license cycle so far. then he can decide what he wants to do with his life learning. but he needs these basics, especially the language. i think that's the most important thing right now if you gave me was after that. so we'll have to see who did i. so this evening, as at the end of the summer,
8:29 pm
rosella prepared supplies to carry them through the winter, they'll be able to comply that we only have to buy a very few things because we produce most of our food ourselves. and thanks to the goats, we always have meet milk and cheese could. yesterday, people seem to try to be a self sufficient as possible because i don't like going to the supermarket. i never know what to buy when i see all those polished vegetables and packaging it. i feel really uncomfortable. instead, she preserves everything herself. first, she marinate the summer vegetables and brine for 2 weeks. then she mixes the overs jeans, carrots and peppers with fresh herbs. and lots of olive oil. mindy olive oil is such a blessing, me love the district, but has life in it. well now i use my hands. i prefer to do it with my hands.
8:30 pm
and it has all the goodness and energy of the summer sun and that that will help warm us up in winter. a lot of it's beautiful. mm. bad, no, no many have been fascinated by rosella and her way of life. they wanted to join her in this ghost town, but none of them stayed for long enough. i can't imagine any other life. i wish to say there's nothing that i would change for. and thank god, i have the great fortune of meeting monica, who makes it possible for me to continue me. so, and i mean, i've had friends in the past who would say, let's move here together. let's set up a community i'm you should, you shouldn't, but in the end, i was always on my own again, because they didn't have the willpower or the courage to follow through. getting companion moved to no, no, no will do. let me love all you all need for not judy 5 people
8:31 pm
just behind the village is the old olive grove. some of the trees that are here now were bought by rosella many years ago. from you. and from that, it's monica demonica, rosella and demonica aren't expecting a bumper harvest because of the drought. another problem is that the goal, it's like to nibble at the trees. but rosella doesn't let any of it get her down. very difficult me see how good it is here. the air that we're breathing is so clean, the sure it's when do sometimes, but i feel so alive. v will know i can feel nature and i never get tired of it. and we send to my, what do you think is that okay? yeah, i'm a lot. and they've spread out the net. so monica can now start to rake the olives
8:32 pm
from the trees. he did this job while in libya, back then he was harvesting all lives to raise money for the traffickers and the refugee boat. no more the bed, my fiance is waiting for me in my life. any that i can't bring here, as it would just be too expensive and they put me on more of a new way. instead moccasins, most of the money that he earns back to molly. in this way, he's supporting his mother and enabling his fiance to study. and put them to you and if it's important that you studies when you don't have that option, so you've got a manual. but in the end it's good for both of us. are you with that? but i'm supporting her now and she will help me in the future. was that by looking to see what the
8:33 pm
seller? oh, are you ready now? gone? i can't see. let me show. we start. it's time for him to do his homework. mock i never learned to read in right now he wants to make up for lost time and learned italian to do it today and for that he needs rosa. let's help not let me get maybe lee many, many, many d, e and then the d e sector to do because what's an object to an object legit? no, no there is to. what's this here?

8:37 pm
is my way of saying, let's come back here and looking for a civil law in model, that'd be, that doesn't come across the income they do. even though pinned it down too low is no longer accessible by car. from the end of the road, they have to make the steep climb on foot. the festival draws to arrest filmmakers and film lovers from all over the world. hundreds of visitors flooded into the ghost town for 3 days. to receive here a few more post is people arriving and me so please making sure the post as arm permanent location means spoken. rosella also has her work cut out for her during the festival. how defensive dr
8:38 pm
though is alive again. ok. she's cooking for some of the visitors, by the way, little has come to help her. he's a chef by trade and grew up in calabria. but these days he lives and works in berlin. whenever i come to calabria, i always tried to spend a few days with rosella systematically come under the same cost. i love to help you guys with that. we work and have fun together to work at it is that it's as busy in the kitchen as it is outside in the village and rosa can earn some extra money. and normally my life is very quiet. but during the film festival, everything is different. friends come to see us, we cook for them and they leave us a small donation. like from, you know,
8:39 pm
she cooks for up to 40 people a day. and the film festival isn't the only time when rosa la profits from the magical charm of her home. throughout the summer, she rents out rooms to tourists and cooks for her guests. place on the same time a simple person is what i do. i enjoy the fact or maybe i should. now for example, of preparing all the food is stressful, but i enjoy doing it because when i see that people are happy and when they tell me, oh it's so good. i get back the energy i invested. 2 her terrace is now full of visitors.
8:40 pm
and so everyone wants go meet the levels of try. okay. her ghost town has come back to life. finally, the streets are filled with life again. the film festival feels like a ray of hope. code pen did not, you know, have a future after all. could art and culture help to revive this goes town? it doesn't fit the volume just so my simply the film festival suggest you if you like. you know, we're not the ones who can change the face of this village. it will have a kind of planning for all the phone and internet. all we're doing what we can to keep the spice of life. we don't see what i mean, but the sudden much to do and we can't do it a lot about him. definitely until october, the for monica to. it's

8:42 pm
loan is once again a ghost town. the place that rosella once fell in love with i need the quiet and when things get too much for me, i'd like to come here. we gotta, you know, maybe that's the reason why i'm here to show the world that you can actually live with very little, you know, since some linux, without this constant craving for more, it's an unhealthy craving that never makes you happy. if i said, if she knew she knew soon, optimum that i've read the secret of rose ellis, happiness is a simple life, which she's found here. if the abandoned villages of calabria are to have a future, it will take people like rosella and to monica. people with a vision who are willing to put in the work those who can perhaps learn to live
8:43 pm
with less. rosella is convinced there are others like her out there. the, even if you do find optimistic about the future of pent deductible. once you see it, you can never forget it. a lot of young people approach me and offer to help. i find this so beautiful. i mean with that not go, not, it may be something new will be born here in the future. we'll see do of this game and i can put that on for to do that so the rosella and marco don't get any support from the authorities. so they put in the work themselves to keep the streets free from level. they won't give up on pen dot too low, and they know they can count on each other. the
