Arribes: Everything Else is Noise is a new documentary by Zev Robinson about the relationship between food, agriculture, sustainability and tradition in this isolated region of NW Spain where people there produce about 80-90% of their own food.
Although it is a portrayal of the people of the region and their way of life that has gone relatively unchanged for centuries, it raises questions about our own way of living, and if there are lessons that can be learned and applied to other areas, and if changes in lifestyles, priorities and population structures are essential for a more sustainable future.
"At a time when people are worried about the exhaustion of the world’s resources, the destruction of environment and are questioning their priorities during the severe economic crisis, Arribes offers another view of what is possible. And during this time of severe economic problems, many people are forced to leave their urban dwellings, return to rely more on home-grown produce, and Arribes shows a simpler, more sustainable and self-reliant way of life."
