Stanley Tucci visits Puglia, a region famous for its fragrant olive oil, beautiful vegetables, cheeses and durum wheat. Despite being such a fertile region, Puglia is also one of Italy's poorest, and Tucci discovers how its spirit of innovation was forged out of hard times.

From Bari’s raw seafood and Cisternino’s Fornelli to cheesemaker Vito’s Apulian blue cheeses, it is clear that, by reclaiming their past, the Pugliese are taking ownership of their future and embracing it on their own terms.
