Episode two introduces us to the Vjosa River - one of the last remaining wild rivers in all of Europe. Generally wild and unpolluted, the river is surrounded by the Vikos–Aoös National Park in Greece, and the Vjosa-Narta Protected Landscape near its mouth. In December 2020, the Albanian portion of the river was designated a "Managed Nature Reserve" by the government. There is a campaign by environmentalist groups to designate the entire Albanian part of the river a national park, to guard against the prospective hydroelectric projects. The Albanian government conceded to the environment: The Vjosa Wild River National Park was created on March 15th, 2023. It is truly one of the last untouched river flows left on the continent. And it is amazing.

Shrouded by prejudice and entwined with horror stories about archaic customary laws, Albania lies like a white spot on the map of southeastern Europe. Shaken by wars and decades of isolation from the outside world, it is home to warm people and incredible natural treasures. Here visitors will find splendid Lakelands, unspoiled coastlines, and breathtaking highlands.

The two episodes show the unknown and unspoiled regions and the traditions with vibrant places of culture and the people they dominate. Prejudice and reality are far apart. Albania is poor, but it is also rich: rich in landscape diversity, flora & fauna, and culture. After the dark decades of communist dictatorship, where all religions were forbidden, it is now a country where Christians and Muslims get along well.
