Renaissance of Nature – The Wild Side of Tuscany

Tuscany, one of the most famous landscapes in the world, is visited by millions of tourists every year, photographed, painted, and described countless times.
Many visitors expect a certain image of the region: gentle rolling hills, picturesque villages, avenues of cypress trees, olive groves, vineyards, and elegant country estates. A landscape regarded as the cradle of the Renaissance and the birthplace of renowned artists and writers such as Dante Alighieri and Leonardo da Vinci. That is the Tuscany promoted in travel guides.

But there is another side to Tuscany—rougher, more untamed, far from the bustle of the cities—where the rhythm of nature shapes the land.

This film is a journey of discovery into an unknown Tuscany. It leads to hidden places off the beaten tourist paths and to overlooked corners, sometimes just within reach of the major attractions.
