Just Droppin In

In Part I of a two-part exploration of Albania's Flamingo Revolution, Just Droppin In takes us on a three-act journey through crime, corruption, political power, international billionaires and an extraordinary grassroots uprising fighting for the future of Albania's coastline.

With investigative journalist Lindita Cela and retired anti-narcotics officer Dritan Zagani, we unravel a story that begins in the turbulent 1990s and leads to the controversial deals putting Albania's spectacular coastline in the international spotlight. We take a closer look at painter-turned-prime minister Edi Rama and the gap between his global image and growing discontent at home. Then we meet the dynamic trio of artist sisters Elsa, Fatma and Natasha Paja, alongside Aleksandër Trajçe, executive director of PPNEA, to dive into the Flamingo Revolution and the fight to protect Albania's wild places.

Three acts. Extraordinary characters. One country caught between global ambition and grassroots resistance.

And a question that reaches far beyond Albania: Who gets to own paradise?
