Episode notes
Not the disaster. The life before it. Pompeii in the summer of 79 AD. The ordinary months before, when no one knew what was coming. Follow five lives along the Via dell'Abbondanza: a woman who runs a food counter from mismatched marble, a painter creating paradise gardens on other people's walls, a young man learning the fuller's trade, a girl who discovers the color blue, and an old woman who remembers the last time the earth shook.
Over 75 minutes of immersive storytelling featuring daily life in ancient Pompeii, Roman food and cooking, fresco painting, the Via dell'Abbondanza, and the ordinary world that was preserved beneath the ash.
