00:00What a sea! A coastline lined with 1,000 islands, mysterious lagoons, miles of sandy beaches and impressive cliffs.
00:21The Adriatic is as diverse as the cultures it connects.
00:28With people who work and live closely with her.
00:43People who have experienced the vulnerability of nature and want to protect the sea.
00:56The Adriatic. Unique and beautiful. Familiar and yet full of surprises.
01:03The Adriatic. Unique and beautiful.
01:10The Adriatic. Unique and beautiful.
01:16The Adriatic. Unique and beautiful.
01:22The Adriatic Sea connects Italy with five countries on the Balkan Peninsula.
01:37Between Isola in Slovenia and Primošten in Croatia, a picturesque world of islands stretches off the coast with impressive cities.
01:49The varied coastal landscape with countless islands, sheltered bays and constant winds makes the Adriatic an ideal sailing area.
02:04The northern east coast, with its numerous archipelagos, offers ideal conditions for relaxed sailing trips and challenging regattas.
02:19The bay of Piran in Slovenia is the training port of Tina Mrak, two-time European champion in the 470 class.
02:32As one of the most successful female sailors in the country, Tina is considered a great role model for the next generation.
02:48At her home club, Pirat Portoroš, she and her sailing partner, Veronica Makarol, provide special training for the next generation.
02:56Hi. Oh, hello. How are you?
02:58We are almost ready. We looked at the waves, the waves, the waves, the waves, and the waves.
03:07There is hardly any wind, but Veronica and Tina still want to see how the youngsters are doing.
03:13We have made a smith around the mountain, so they have seen these maneuvers.
03:19It's a little secret.
03:21Yes, it's a little secret.
03:23We don't have such a powerful maestral, but I think we have a sense that almost every day we are on the sea,
03:29or it's a light or it's a light that is heavy, it's heavy, and it's heavy.
03:33It's heavy and heavy. It's heavy and heavy and heavy and cold.
03:35There is also heavy and heavy and cold in the sky and cold in the sea,
03:39and it's heavy and heavy. So if we want to get to the sun, we can get to the sun.
03:44First we are burning and then we are going to the sky.
03:48What was the most scary thing to see in the sun?
03:53Yes, maybe when there is a lot of weather and when we were in Santander.
04:00Yes, we were in the ocean, which is still more than here in our river.
04:04We were together, because it is important to have some patience,
04:08that you are not alone in the water.
04:10And then we were together with some competition,
04:13so we were not together.
04:14I did not do that.
04:16What about you?
04:17What about you?
04:18Yes.
04:19For example, when I was on the ground,
04:21I was on the ground,
04:23and I was on the ground,
04:24and I was on the ground,
04:25and I was on the ground.
04:27Before the start?
04:28Yes.
04:31But today, it is all about making progress.
04:41Three, two, one.
04:43One!
04:46The children are already showing considerable skill.
05:05All of the Olympic games in Atlantis
05:08and we have our club as a leader in the Olympic Games.
05:12So it is a great opportunity for us.
05:16And I hope that we will have a good motivation for all young players,
05:22who come to the ground.
05:25The move from the young players is difficult,
05:28but I hope that the young players are successful.
05:33I hope that they will continue.
05:34I hope you will get to the next day.
05:52Tina and Veronica's greatest success was fifth place
05:55at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo.
05:59However, when Veronica became pregnant,
06:01pregnant, she decided to stop competitive sailing. After 10 successful years together,
06:10Tina now has a new sailing partner, Jakob Božic.
06:31It's a warm water, so we enjoyed it. If we had any conditions, it would be ideal.
06:44For Jakob, who most recently worked as a coach, the offer to become Tina's sailing partner
06:49was the chance to fulfill his dream of competing in major international competitions.
06:55They are training hard for this.
06:58We have been working for about 10 years.
07:04So, you can make some systems automatically.
07:11So, Jakob, I tried to do this for a short time.
07:19A few kilometers north of Port Roche lies Isola.
07:22The town was already famous at the end of the 19th century
07:26for supplying canned fish to the whole world.
07:29Today, the small harbor is mainly home to yachts and sailboats.
07:34Daniel Hrvat and his father, Vizelko, are the last people who still live exclusively from fishing.
07:54Today, most fishermen earn their money from tourism, especially in the summer months.
07:59Daniel and Vizelko deliver everything they catch to the local fish store or, as on this Sunday, sell it directly from the boat.
08:11Some regular customers are already waiting patiently until father and son have cleaned the fish for them.
08:18He has rained on with no Lazari.
08:19It just feels like a lot of water is fine,
08:20but that they feel like a lot of water is fine.
08:22Today, they are not paying for any time, but in the past.
08:23That is why we are still mañana and were not on the coast.
08:25So, our Fraser's seaway can have done!
08:27That is why we are unemployed.
08:28The river that is now being done with the water.
08:29The river that is already being done with the water,
08:30from Smart City, the river that is helping us to fight for our power.
08:32It is still the river that the river is staying in the west.
08:33Today, the river that is allowed to come to his home to just the water.
08:34We were a little closer, more in Italian areas, and it didn't get paid for us.
08:39It would be better to stay there like yesterday.
08:42So today it would be a catastrophe. It would be better to stay home.
08:47It would be better to catch them in a boat than in the sea.
09:04And probably through no fault of their own.
09:07We had six months of fishing, six months of fishing.
09:12And it would be better to stay alive.
09:15But this is not, it's not, it's not, it's not.
09:18If it was again activated, it would be better to stay alive in the sea.
09:23But because we don't allow it, we don't leave it.
09:26So in the ten years there would be no more fishing.
09:34Tina Stefe Boznik also makes a living from fishing.
09:45She is one of the few women in the business and is on her way to her store.
09:52Her grandmother, great aunts and aunts have already made a living for their families by selling fish.
10:01This is becoming increasingly difficult for Tina.
10:04Locally caught red bream, tuna and flounder are still on display.
10:09However, the Mediterranean is one of the most overfished waters in the world.
10:14EU laws are intended to protect stocks and ensure sustainable fishing.
10:19But compliance with them is clearly not being monitored strictly enough.
10:24Tina has been observing the changes since she took over the store in 2009.
10:37The LOTTOON service was announced knowing the amount of fish than since they die in Japan.
10:39The whole animal back.
10:40At some point of view is for the wars.
10:4415 years, although it's during that time.
10:48Or since it is my plan.
10:50Unfortunately, some of them are a little bit hungry.
10:54The question is even greater than the opportunity for the meal.
11:00That's why they're going to hunt,
11:03depending on what they will hunt.
11:06They're going to hunt everything,
11:08a lot of fish,
11:10and then there's no time to regenerate.
11:13Hello.
11:15We have five more.
11:18A large part of the catch does not even reach the store counter, but is pre-ordered and delivered directly.
11:48From a fishing village with a long tradition, Isola has developed into a popular vacation destination.
11:59Visitors appreciate the relaxed atmosphere.
12:05They can choose between seven beaches along a shoreline of almost seven kilometers.
12:11And, unlike the neighboring towns, these are rarely overcrowded, even in high summer.
12:18A little further south lies one of the most beautiful places on the Slovenian Adriatic coast, Piran.
12:48The only Slovenian institution for research into the Adriatic has been based here for 55 years.
12:58Borut Mavric and Lovrens Lipej primarily study the habitats flora and fauna on the seabed.
13:04They are important indicators of the ecological state of the sea.
13:11The biologists discuss today's task for the last time.
13:15Here, directly in front of the institute, is one of their research fields, the condition of which they check at regular intervals.
13:22When you finish this, you can look at the collectors and the pins.
13:34If everything is okay, but all of them are not in the position.
13:38If we have control, then we will go to September and October.
13:41The research is also focusing on the changes caused by ocean warming.
13:48The temperature temperature.
13:50The temperature?
13:51The temperature?
13:52The temperature.
13:53The temperature.
13:54The temperature.
13:55The temperature.
13:56The temperature.
13:57We change it.
13:59We check it out from the temperature.
14:01The new ones are fixed.
14:02The connection.
14:03That's it.
14:04Slovenia has placed three marine areas under protection.
14:08Lovrens Lipej has been observing for years that even the smallest protected areas help to preserve the biodiversity of the Adriatic.
14:17There are only a few living razor clams left in the study area.
14:45For some years now, they have been dying off en masse throughout the Mediterranean.
14:50A pathogen is thought to be responsible for this.
14:54To save the stalks, attempts are being made to breed them.
14:58The larvae of the mussels can settle in floating nets, known as collectors.
15:03When they are large enough, they are removed and reared in aquariums under optimal conditions
15:08until they reach sexual maturity in order to ensure their survival.
15:14Another endangered species is the stony coral, which is endemic to the Mediterranean.
15:21Borut marks a 50-meter stretch and counts the number and size of corals within one meter to the left and right of the tape.
15:37Individual polyps form cushion-shaped colonies in symbiosis with zoosanthella algae.
15:43It is the only reef-forming coral species in the Adriatic.
15:47Borut counts the polyps in the colony and checks how many of them are affected by coral bleaching.
15:52The presence of other species such as seahorses, sea cucumbers and screw tables also gives the researchers an indication of the state of the sea.
16:06The situation is strange.
16:07I don't know where the species are.
16:08I don't know.
16:09It's a nekrotical colony.
16:10Borut brought a broken dead coral with him for further examination.
16:13I think it's super, it's a weak.
16:14It's not a weak, it's a weak.
16:15It's a weak colony.
16:16But not a powerful nekrotical colony.
16:17Borut brought a broken dead coral with him for further examination.
16:30I think that's a good thing.
16:31It's weak.
16:32It's weak, but it's not a weak, since it's all white, nothing is extended with epiphitta.
16:39So that's how it fits, so that's what it is today, in a few days.
16:45Let's see how the temperature is going.
16:49I'm going to see how it works.
16:54This is what it is, but it doesn't mean anything,
16:57because at the beginning of the period,
16:59we are going to see the temperature in September,
17:04because the organisms are always involved with a certain level of stress.
17:10The problem is that the stress is too much,
17:12which means that the temperatures are increased for a long time.
17:15Then the immune system falls, they lose symbionts,
17:19they feed other bacteria, and this causes death.
17:27500 years of Venetian rule have shaped the appearance of the coastal towns
17:32with their picturesque locations and historic architecture.
17:45The Slovenian Adriatic is less than 50 kilometers long,
17:49but rich in history, traditions, and natural beauty.
17:53One of these is the Strunjan Landscape Park.
17:56The sea, rain, and wind constantly create new shapes
18:00in the crumbling rock layers of the steep cliffs.
18:03The nature park also includes the Strunjan salt pans,
18:07which are considered the smallest and northernmost salt pans in the Mediterranean.
18:17An insider tip for lovers of old wooden boats,
18:20the workshop of the Bracera Association.
18:23Traditional, historical boats are restored here with great attention to detail.
18:28A special shipyard run by passionate wooden boat enthusiasts
18:33and preservers of this cultural heritage.
18:36An open-air museum.
18:46It's five o'clock in the morning, just before sunrise.
18:49Tijana Vucur Blazinic and Marko Radulovic set off in search of dolphins.
18:56They are part of the Blue World Institute research team,
18:59which has been collecting data on the bottlenose dolphin population
19:02around the islands of Lozinj and Kres since 1995.
19:11Tijana has spotted fishing boats on the horizon.
19:13They are her target today.
19:15Recently, more and more dolphins have been swimming far out of their traditional waters
19:20and approaching these boats.
19:22They have discovered that it is much easier for them to reach their prey in their vicinity.
19:27For us it's interesting to see from our resident dolphins,
19:37who use this area,
19:39whether all dolphins use it or certain dolphins,
19:44and why is it so if it's only certain dolphins?
19:48For half an hour, Tijana and Marko circle the fishing boat and keep an eye out.
19:55Finally, they appear, a whole group.
19:58The biologist already knows some of them.
20:01For more than ten years,
20:03she's been responsible for photo identifying the animals,
20:06which can be clearly distinguished from one another by their dorsal fins.
20:11This fish has been removed from the molto criptoplication
20:13As well, they appear through the blackfish,
20:14which is believed in the ages of 95.
20:15And they apparently have 4 generations of brownfish.
20:17As well, many people are affected by the jubecta.
20:20Due to the whites of these fish,
20:21from the east,
20:22We have an entire 4th generation.
20:24Evo,
20:25here,
20:26Here we have a group of boys and girls women.
20:29The women are raised by mladers.
20:31Here,
20:32for example,
20:33one of the women's women is Ella,
20:35who is the picture of Mama Dino.
20:38In 2012, we have seen a newly born young woman.
20:43She has 11 years old and has her child.
20:47When they become mothers in this area,
20:51they always have a young woman every four years.
21:08There are more than 3,000 animals in their catalogue.
21:13For us, it is important to photograph the animals regularly,
21:17because the backfloss changes over time.
21:20That is, especially for male animals,
21:23who often fight against each other.
21:27It can also be that after three years,
21:30the floss changes so strongly,
21:32that you can hardly see the floss again.
21:38The Kres Lozing archipelago is the northernmost group of islands
21:47in the Croatian Adriatic.
21:49Numerous large and small bays,
21:52underwater caves, crystal clear water,
21:55and a largely untouched maritime world.
22:08Dense pine forests and herb gardens surround the two main towns on the island,
22:13Veli Lozing and Mali Lozing.
22:16The two harbour towns have been climactic health resorts since the 19th century.
22:22Lozing, also known as the island of scents and herbs,
22:25is one of the sunniest places in Europe, with a particularly mild climate.
22:30The rich underwater world and the dolphins attract many visitors.
22:39At the same time, however, they also disturb the dolphins' habitat and drive them away.
22:45Marco and Tijana evaluate the results of their observation tour.
22:51The Blue World Institute's research is the longest study to date on a population of bottlenose dolphins,
22:58the most common dolphin species in the Mediterranean.
23:01There are currently just over 200 animals living in this region,
23:05and around 8,000 in the Adriatic as a whole.
23:08Part of their research also involves creating an acoustic database
23:13and mapping the migration routes of the marine animals.
23:19The analysis that we have done, the acoustic analysis,
23:22shows that during the months they increase their voices for 3 decibels.
23:28So they have to speak, as we have to speak,
23:36and speak more so that they can communicate between themselves,
23:39so that their mothers would keep communication with their young people
23:43and spend more energy.
23:45And then they have to speak more energy with food,
23:48which they don't have.
23:50The seasonal season changes the tourist season
23:54with the fact that they get the young people
23:56and when they have the most sensitive groups.
24:00Opatia is located in the Kvarner Bay,
24:10also a health resort like Los Inch,
24:12and once one of the most fashionable meeting places of the European aristocracy.
24:17Magnificent hotels and villas bear witness to the time
24:21when Emperor Franz Josef and his sissy,
24:24the Austrian imperial couple, and famous artists resided here.
24:30Opatia is also known for its many well-kept parks
24:45and the 12-kilometer-long waterfront promenade Lungomare.
24:49It is the lifeline of the town
24:56and connects it with the small suburbs of Lovran to the north
25:00and Volosco to the south.
25:05The bay off Volosco is popular with windsurfers
25:08who can even learn from one of the best in this sport,
25:11two-time world champion Enrico Marotta.
25:15You look good today, huh?
25:17You look great.
25:18You look great.
25:19You look great.
25:20You look great.
25:21What are you doing today?
25:22We have a lot of people in school.
25:23We will have some 14 in one big group.
25:26You look great.
25:27You look great.
25:29Enrico and his partner Nika opened the small surf school
25:32four years ago.
25:34The conditions in Volosco are ideal.
25:37Wind is guaranteed here 220 days a year.
25:41In the middle of the night, Slovenia is very cold,
25:53and because of the sea is warm,
25:55it is very warm.
25:56When the sun starts to grow in Slovenia,
25:59when the sun starts to grow in Slovenia,
26:01the temperature is very warm.
26:03It is very warm.
26:05It is very warm.
26:07It is very warm.
26:09On this morning,
26:15the country's best surfers gather in the small harbor
26:18for the traditional slalom regatta.
26:25A final check of sails and boards before the start.
26:29Thin and foil surfers are permitted.
26:33Enrico is also there.
26:39The red flag is in the right place.
26:42Yes, you are in the right place.
26:43In the right place?
26:44Yes, I do not know.
26:45The entire field is in the right place.
26:46I am in the right place.
26:48When you are always good and good, the feeling is really incredible because you are constantly fighting with the nature, and the nature knows to be a little bit.
27:03So you are always looking for it, you are always looking for it, you are always looking for it, you are always looking for it.
27:10The sport is a very dynamic sport, you go very quickly, you are very close to the sea, you are in a great direction with the sea, with the wind, with the nature and you will get to it.
27:40Sailing, diving, windsurfing. The Adriatic is not an open ocean and is therefore a relatively safe area for water sports enthusiasts.
27:59The Speciality of the Jadrans is that the western area we have, the beach is the surface of the sea.
28:16But this is all natural. We found ourselves here and got everything.
28:21and that's what we've achieved.
28:23But we need to hear it and listen to it,
28:27and that we won't be selfless,
28:29and that it will remain for many generations after us.
28:51For more than 30 years, Josip Broz Tito,
29:08the former head of state of Yugoslavia,
29:10had his summer residence here.
29:13Tito received Hollywood stars and high-ranking politicians
29:17on Veliki Bryun, the largest of the islands,
29:20visitors often brought him extraordinary gifts, exotic animals.
29:34The spacious Safari Park is home to rare native farm animals,
29:39as well as exotic species from South America, Africa, and Asia.
29:45Biologist Alena Spirčić is responsible for their welfare.
29:50She checks on them every day.
29:52She checks on them every day.
30:05These insects are the petons that Tito had in the past 50s and 60s.
30:10They are very good here.
30:11They are very good in the Mediterranean climate.
30:14They are wide, they have a large space where they can move,
30:19food that is always used. Every year we have only one young one of those zebras.
30:49Here we go. It's very good.
30:59For now I've never shown a healthy problem, which is good.
31:04She has a very good will every day.
31:08It's a little soft.
31:11It's maybe the highest state, but it's good.
31:15We can do everything with her and it's never been aggressive.
31:24Let's stand behind her now.
31:28Bravo!
31:33Hello!
31:35How are you doing?
31:37Good.
31:38How are you doing today?
31:40What are you doing today?
31:41What are you doing today?
31:42Food.
31:43Food.
31:44Food.
31:45Now this jackpot is on our training.
31:47And the sand is broken.
31:49Let's say about 30 kilos.
31:52Did you even mess around your eyes?
31:54No, we haven't done today, but we don't do that.
31:58We put two old skin and eyes around your eyes.
32:02Yes.
32:03Yes.
32:04So it will help her look at the old skin.
32:06Yes.
32:07Super.
32:08Pampered and well cared for.
32:10At the age of 50, Lanka is the oldest female elephant in captivity,
32:15where the average life expectancy is only 17 years.
32:19The safari park with its spacious enclosures is only a small part of the island,
32:30which can be explored on well-maintained paths.
32:34The Briuni archipelago is characterized by its diverse flora and fauna.
32:44And this was probably already the case in prehistoric times.
32:48Around 120 million years ago, dinosaurs roamed this area.
32:57Archaeologists have found more than 200 footprints of prehistoric lizards in the rocks of the archipelago.
33:04The footprints were flooded with sand or clay shortly after they were made,
33:09allowing them to slowly fossilize under protection.
33:17In ancient times, the Romans came to the Briuni islands to grow olives and spend their summers here.
33:24They built several villas, of which the one in Veriga Bay was probably the largest and most luxurious.
33:34The magnificent complex stretched for over a kilometer along the bay with temples, promenades, thermal baths, and fish ponds.
33:43Today, tourists linger between the walls of the once magnificent complex, parts of which are still preserved underwater.
33:51Here in the Blue Depths is the real reason why the Briuni islands were declared a national park.
34:04An abundance of fish found nowhere else in the Adriatic.
34:10Fishing has been prohibited in these waters for over 70 years.
34:17Only since 2001 have a few divers been allowed to explore this incredible underwater world under strict supervision
34:25and experience what nature can look like when we humans leave it alone.
34:34Fishing has been prohibited in these waters for over 70 years.
34:35In other words, a form of animal husbandry that is more compatible with the expectations of a national park is being considered above water.
34:56I would like to have to make a place of this Zološka.
34:58I would like to make a place of modern Zološki vrt, but also with vrstami that are ungrossed in the Udivljini.
35:04I think that it is something that is something that goes to the National Park.
35:08It is the only thing that is necessary to have a safari park, Zološki vrt,
35:12that is something that is the National Park,
35:13when they are concerned about animals that may be put in the reserve or even in the desert.
35:19Even in the Udivljini.
35:20That would be ideal, but that is the final process.
35:29The Zadar archipelago a little further south with its more than 300 islands, islets and reefs
35:36also impresses with its beauty and unspoiled nature.
35:44One of these islands is Olib,
35:46a green oasis in the middle of the shimmering turquoise sea.
35:55Lush vegetation can also be found around Olib under the surface of the water.
36:00The extensive seagrass meadows are a source of food and shelter for a variety of animals.
36:06They also protect the beaches from erosion.
36:09Denis Kleva regularly cruises the islands' bays.
36:24The event manager gave up his job 13 years ago and moved from busy Zadar to his parents' house on Olib.
36:34He was looking for a new business idea on the lonely island.
36:39He found it on the beaches.
36:43The washed-up Neptune grass, which is sometimes mistaken for pollution by beach visitors, can actually be useful.
36:57As a valuable fertilizer in the fields, or for insulating roofs and house walls.
37:06Denis uses it to make pillows and vacation souvenirs that smell of the beach and sea air.
37:13He is carrying out this big water.
37:17He has a tahu sea source and has a beautiful ocean.
37:20He is پید camp?
37:21He has no trees, there is no trees, no trees.
37:23He has nowhere, no trees and trees.
37:25He has completely empty.
37:26He has nothing to do to do.
37:27This is a real tepih, if you take one tepih and bring it to the ground, and when you dry it,
37:40this is very dry, it comes from this thick, two times more volume when it dry.
37:57The water is very beneficial for asthmatics.
38:02When you get a lot of fish, we have to dry it and clean it.
38:07The fish will fall from it.
38:09But from 5 kg of fish, you get 2 kg of fish and 3 kg of fish.
38:13This is half a meter because it was already clean.
38:16It would be 2 meters.
38:17And all the valleys are full of sea fish.
38:20It is protected here in the Mediterranean.
38:23You can't put it anywhere you want.
38:26It is protected here.
38:27We can't put it in the water.
38:29The water will fall from the spring.
38:33The trees will fall from the summer.
38:53The few roads on the island are so narrow, that normal cars would barely fit through.
39:01But they are banned here anyway.
39:03No traffic, hardly any tourists and a slower lifestyle.
39:07If you visit Olib you will meet friendly people and perhaps discover the joy of doing nothing for yourself.
39:13If you visit Olib, you'll meet friendly people and perhaps discover the joy of doing nothing
39:21for yourself.
39:23There are no tourist attractions here, and that is precisely what makes the island so
39:28appealing.
39:40Dennis is back from the beach.
39:45He spreads the collected Neptune grass out to dry in a special container in his yard.
39:52After a few hours in the blazing sun, the blades of grass are completely dry.
40:10It's clear.
40:11It's important to dry it.
40:12When it comes to dry, there's no water, and it's a good water.
40:21Dennis needs about one and a half kilos of his collection and a bit of manual labor per
40:26pillow, an idea that makes good use of the valuable Neptune grass with little effort.
40:31Seaweed pillow and vijastu from the sea grass.
40:50The town of Primošten further south.
40:58The island on which it lies was once connected to the mainland by a bridge.
41:03This is where the current name comes from, which is derived from the verb primostiti, meaning
41:09to bridge.
41:15A labyrinth of narrow alleyways and the picturesque location make the town unmistakable.
41:24The neighboring Butzavac vineyard is also unique, full of stones that wrap around the
41:29vines like a lace blanket, a work of art, and also a sign of hard human work.
41:38The wine growers dug out the boulders deep in the ground by hand to make room for the
41:43vines.
41:45They stacked the stones they removed to form dry stone walls, which now demarcate the
41:50plots and protect the soil from erosion by wind and water.
41:56Tomagoj Pirgin also uses them as paths.
42:03He cultivates two vineyards on this stony field.
42:07The effort is worth it.
42:09The quality of the wine is exceptional.
42:11The sands are planted in large stones, and the stones are planted in large stones, and
42:18the stones are planted in large stones, and the stones are planted in large stones.
42:24The sands are still very low here, because they would not hold too much pressure because of the
42:30waste of water.
42:31In the best years, we get between half a kilo and seven dkg of the sands, which for those
42:36who know something about the sands, it is really small, but the concentration of the
42:40sands is extremely important.
42:43It is September, and Tomagoj measures the sugar content every day to determine the right time
42:49for the harvest.
42:59On the challenging terrain, the grapes can only be picked by hand, and every hand, no
43:05matter how small, is welcome.
43:08Under these barren conditions, only the local grape variety Babic, also known as the Little
43:13Black Giant from Primošten, can be successfully cultivated.
43:18It is used to make one of the best wines in Croatia, full of character, full-bodied with balanced
43:24aromas of plums and maraska cherries.
43:28It was a difficult year with lots of rain.
43:30To Ivana Pirđin's delight, the yield is better than expected.
43:33The conditions on Bucavac are extreme, both for the vines and for the wine growers.
43:52The conditions on Bucavac are extreme, both for the vines and for the wine growers.
43:58It is very dangerous.
43:59I think without any problems, both for the two of us can be able to be able to be able to
44:04be able to lose.
44:05This is a heavy terrain.
44:07The water is full of trees, so there is no much help.
44:14It will be easier for us, unfortunately.
44:20Everything is done by hand.
44:22From the stone walls to the cultivation of the vineyards and the harvesting of the grapes,
44:26the fruit of the vineyards.
44:29Bucavac is currently waiting to be added to the UNESCO World Heritage List as a monument
44:35to painstaking human labour.
44:36It works as a time of our ancestors, but it works as a time of Jesus Christ.
44:45Here, on this terrain, you can't do anything, you can't do anything, you can't do anything,
44:49you can't do anything, you can't do anything, you can't do anything, you can't do anything,
44:51you can't do anything, you can't do anything.
44:53The islands of the Murter archipelago are less well known than the Kornati islands behind
45:10them, but no less impressive.
45:18Bettina is located on the north side of the island of Murter, a village with around 800
45:24inhabitants and a long tradition of wooden shipbuilding.
45:31The small harbour is an open-air museum.
45:34Many of the ships built by Bettina's famous boat builders are moored here, lovingly restored,
45:40and still in use almost every day.
45:45Wooden ships have been built in Bettina for more than 270 years.
45:50In the best times, there were ten shipyards, five remain and are well utilized.
45:58Bettina is one of the last bastions of wooden shipbuilding in Europe.
46:02Before they can start their rowing training, Diana Filippi and her team colleagues first
46:17have to dismantle the sails and mast.
46:19The mast alone weighs almost 100 kilos.
46:29The rowers are used to heavy equipment.
46:32Their boat, Grandmother Tone, a 100-year-old traditional Bettiner galleta and its oars are also made
46:40of solid wood.
46:42Their boat is about 50-60 kilos.
46:48It is about 7 miles of weight.
46:50They are long-term, which are long-term for five coats and 80 centimeters.
46:58These are the relevant boat and the boca is very weak, and that's why we are strong.
47:04The boat is about 2000 kilograms.
47:07The long oars have to be positioned with skill in order to achieve optimum power transmission
47:28with the right technique. The women have perfected it over the years.
47:37For more than 10 years, Diana and her team have been taking part in the women's rowing regattas held at various locations on the island of Murtr.
47:58Diana was one of the initiators. She and her colleagues wanted to remind people of the role of women on the sea and on boats,
48:06an achievement that has never been sufficiently appreciated and recognized.
48:13These regattas are held at the beginning of the women. In the end of the line, the road, the gajeta, and the women.
48:20The women who have been fishing in the past, in Modrav and in Kornatina.
48:28The women have been fishing for 6 hours on these boats, with these boats, so that they would be able to get to their visit.
48:38Rowing is much more than just a sport or pastime for these women.
48:50The kinkering is also originating.
48:53The tradition of our neighbours, the tradition of the heritage, the tradition of the knights, the remains of our old people,
48:59and the respect of the what we, our identity, because we live in the town of Murtr.
49:03We live in the city of Drvene Proto-Gradnje and we're all over the whole life.
49:26For 12 years they've been rowing under an unusual name, the team to get away from home.
49:34It was Lubica's idea.
49:36And then it just came from ourselves.
49:39We'll be away from everyday relationships, from home, from children, from wives, from everything.
49:47We're happy in our own way.
49:49And we're all together together.
49:51We're all together together.
49:53We're all together together.
49:56Here's another big deal.
49:58First, MULTER 2019.
50:00From Mula to Mula.
50:02What's the name of this one?
50:05This one.
50:06They have won many prizes and have often stood on the winner's podium.
50:13Their trophy collection brings back fond memories.
50:16When we started to travel, I joined this team.
50:19And they didn't even know that they were joined.
50:22They didn't even know that they were joined in the regatta.
50:24And how did they do it?
50:25Yes.
50:26Yes.
50:27But I knew that they were joined in the regatta.
50:28But I knew that they were joined in the regatta.
50:29And they were joined in the regatta.
50:30But I knew that these women don't stand in front of challenges.
50:35And that they will do it the best possible.
50:40And they were joined in the regatta.
50:41And they were joined in the regatta.
50:43We were joined in the regatta.
50:44We had a great job.
50:45With every training session and every regatta, the female rowers from Bettina remind us of
50:59all the women in the past who helped carry out the work at the shipyard, but were almost
51:04always overshadowed by the men.
51:08And they dispel an old superstition.
51:11Women on board don't bring bad luck, they achieve remarkable things.
51:41.
51:48.
51:49.
51:52.
51:54.
