- 12:34Manta de Retalhos | João Almeida | TEDxLisboaO que pode uma manta de retalhos de vinhas ensinar-nos sobre comunidade, coragem e mudança? João Almeida partilha a história do crescimento do Alvarinho em Melgaço — uma região remota, marcada pela agricultura de subsistência e pela emigração. Tudo começou em 1974 e, meio século depois, mais de 200 famílias cuidam de pequenas parcelas que, juntas, formam um mosaico vivo de viticultura, resiliência e futuro. Uma reflexão sobre mudança, pertença e a força transformadora das decisões quando são cuidadas ao longo do tempo. Nascido e criado em Vila do Conde, com Mestrado em Informação e Jornalismo na Universidade do Minho. Trabalhou como jornalista de televisão e rádio em França e na Alemanha, fez um PHD em documentários na University of Edinburgh, trabalhou numa loja de conservas em Lisboa, viveu e filmou em Barrancos e, mais recentemente, trabalhava como produtor de televisão no Porto quando a vida o levou para o território de Monção e Melgaço. Dois dias depois de se mudar, soube que ia ser pai, comprou uma vinha, dirigiu-se ao Soalheiro para integrar o Clube de viticultores e, depois de uma conversa, daquelas que mudam vidas, juntou-se à inspiradora equipa do Soalheiro: trabalhou na vinha e na adega, hoje, além de pequeno produtor independente é o Responsável pela Comunicação do Soalheiro.
