EMU specializes in furniture for the outdoors. But it got its start in post-war Italy by designing metal desks for schoolrooms.

Designers come from all over the world to maintain an international style. Production is carried out almost exclusively in the plant located in Umbria but most of what is produced will go to markets abroad.

Architect Enza Martellota explains the origins of the trullo and how it developed over time.

Apulia is famous for the characteristic trullo. But another typical building is the lamia, a rural building with a square base, sloping dry stone walls and a roof usually made with a lowered barrel vault or a dome. This characteristically simple construction consists of a single room, used as a temporary shelter for the farm's agricultural workers or storage. Today, many of these farms have been transformed into hotels.

From the heart of Tuscany, famous for its olive oil, Tuscans Lisetta and Alessio talk about how olive oil is made.

Lisetta and Alessio show us how they like to taste their new, freshly pressed olive oil. Since oil can be used uncooked to dress salads, or used as cooking oil, they call the uncooked oil olio crudo (raw oil).

Oriana Fallaci was a famous journalist, writer, and activist. This biopic starring Vittoria Puccini recounts some aspects and episodes of her multi-faceted life. See the trailer here, or, if you're not yet a Yabla subscriber, see it on YouTube.

Lisa's goal in meeting with Oriana is an interview, which Oriana clearly does not want to give. But she tells about when she was a ruthless interviewer herself, in both Italy and the U.S.

Oriana has to argue with her boss to be able to go around the world interviewing women. In 1961, she manages to fly to Pakistan but is frustrated by how hard it is to even talk to another woman.

Oriana writes about the conditions of Muslim women in Islamic countries. In 1967, she goes to South Vietnam, a country being torn apart by war.

Welcome to Saigon! Oriana goes to the press office and meets François Pelou, a war correspondent from France. There is a crisis going on and together, they attempt to head it off.

François Pelou e Oriana Fallaci walk around the streets of Saigon and go into a nightspot where the soldiers spend time with Vietnamese girls. The next day they get some instructions from the military for staying healthy and safe during their stay.

Oriana gets onto a helicopter with the troops. And she ends up in the thick of things.

Oriana manages to interview some soldiers, each with his own experience to share. The song at the end of the segment is "My Girl" written by Smokey Robinson for The Temptations. It was a number one hit song in the mid-sixties.

Oriana goes to see François Pelou and then gets permission to interview the prisoners who had been sentenced to death.
