Natural dyeing with plants or sometimes with lice, being thousands of years old, is a very sustainable form of making our world a little more beautiful and colourful. A desire that has always existed! In two short films, we introduce people who successfully strive to apply and develop the old techniques, so they do not get forgotten. We present the DOBAG project in Turkey, where carpet wool is dyed with plants, and we follow Dieter Kaiser in Germany, experimenting with natural dyes for 40 years and now producing a colour palette that is unmatched. It is recommended to watch the films one after the other, as they complement each other well. But each film also works independently.
