Un temps, els calciners (part 2)

Documentary filmed in Felanitx (Mallorca) in Pedro Escribano's lime kiln. A fire is lit in the lime kiln and the process continues by observing the changes of colour of the stones. At the end, the stones are tested to see if the process is finished, the limestone blocks that keep the proper conditions are extracted. The final products are fused lime, of which the fusion process is shown, and quicklime.
