The Charcoal Makers of Ikaria Island

80 mins
The story of Ikaria's renowned charcoal makers, who traveled Greece and Asia Minor. Elderly burners recount hardships, while women recall life on the island. Descendants share memories of relocation. Guided by historian Themistocles Katsaros and excerpts from The Charcoal Burners (1977), we revisit a bygone era, during which charcoal fueled Greece's industry.
