The local premier of the now international award-winning feature film The Wine of Summer, screens Saturday, October 19 at the Eureka Theater.
Written and directed by Humboldt County native Maria Matteoli, the film had its official World Premier at the Douro Film Festival in Porto on September 21. Matteoli and a dozen cast and crew members traveled to Portugal to celebrate the Official Selection as one of only ten
