A Potter

Original title Un Olar

[mlsid]

Clay, water, fire, skill, patience and hard work – these are the “ingredients” of pottery. A day and a night of work from the life of Stelian Ionita, the last potter in the village of Finta, Romania, who hardly earns his bread, seemingly defying ,with dignity, the customs of the 21st century.
