It is a village of 200 inhabitants and it is very important for your ancient traditions Greek is still the only village entirely speak greek, and precisely they spoken Greek of Calabria which is different from Modern Greek and the Old. More willful, and in some way inevitable, the gradual depopulation of the increasingly small community that now at risk of population extinction, which has the great responsibility to keep alive the roots of a people who written important pages in the history of our country. A research conducted by legambiente reports that in Italy there are about 3,000 municipalities at risk of population extinction, of which more than 150 are found in Calabria.

And you keep recording italian rural life... or is it Greek ?
Looks like you embark on humongous documentary task. It is another face of photography and jurnalism, it will be realy interesting to see your collection of photographs and coments collected together in a form of book.
