Popis epizódy
Christmas in Slovakia has evolved significantly in recent years. Climate change has made a white Christmas less predictable, and the consumption habits of the modern Western world have lessened the appeal of handmade, locally produced goods. However, there are individuals and communities across the country who are preserving traditions and shifting their priorities, making Christmas in Slovakia a little greener today. RSI visited Moravské Lieskové, Trenčianska Teplá, and Machnáč to explore the traditions that make Christmas in Slovakia special. From trees and fish to handmade goods, we delved into the heart of festive preparations. To enhance the holiday spirit, we also curated a selection of Christmas music for a joyful celebration.
