This collection of documentaries explores the indelible mark the olive tree, a symbol of life and spirit of peace, has left on the Mediterranean region for thousands of years. The Olive Route collection, rich in detail and colorful in scope, is not simply a geographical path, but a bridge connecting people, culture, trade, and spirituality that reveals a surprising common heritage among a diverse population. It is impossible to understand the history and culture of the Mediterranean without studying the impact of the humble olive tree on the region.
