Senza Trucco: women and natural wine

The documentary “Senza Trucco” (Without Makeup) about women natural winemakers in Italy previewed at the 14th Environmental Film Festival held in Turin in June 2011 (Festival Cinemambiente) and won first prize at Siciliambiente Festival, held in Sicily in July 2011.

Giulia Graglia and Marco Fiumara conceived, produced, and directed the film, which gives a portrait of four Italian women who produce organic and biodynamic wine.
The women speak to the camera as they go about their seasonal work in the vineyard.
Here is the official trailer:

They include:
Nicoletta Bocca, from San Fereolo, in the Dogliani Piedmont region of Northern Italy who tells step by step about making Dolcetto di Dogliani.
Dora Forsoni, from the Poderi Sanguineto I and II Winery in the Montepulciano region of Tuscany describes making Vino Nobile di Montepulciano and Rosso di Montepulciano.
Elisabetta Foradori, from the Rotaliana plain area in the northern Trentino-Alto Adige region speaks of her Teroldego, which grows in the silence of the surrounding mountains.
Arianna Occhipinti, young, knowing, energetic, from the Vittoria region near Ragusa in Sicilia, provides insight into her Nero d’Avola and Frappato.

The documentary captures the passion of individuals who make wine with spirit, strength and delicacy, audacity and patience, and who, as women, reflect an approach much needed not only in organic wine-making...

In addition to the producers and directors Giulia Graglia and Marco Fiumara, the film crew included: Tarek Ben Abdallah (photography) and Ilaria Paganelli and Valeria Puddu (Planet Image, co-producers).
