On the Beach in Sardinia – Pre-Premiere Screening + Lecture

About the Film: On the Beach in Sardinia — In the early 2000s, on a wild beach in Sardinia, Efisio lives—a stubborn, solitary shepherd, a relic of a disappearing world. Opposite him stands Giacomo, a determined entrepreneur seeking to turn the area into a luxury resort. Their struggle over a piece of land becomes a conflict between economic development and preserving tradition, between progress and roots, and between dreams of a new future and the fear of losing the local identity. A true story full of humor and emotion about a community torn between the dream of economic prosperity and the fear of losing its place on Sardinia’s magnificent coast. From the director of A World Apart.
