Synopsis

A 5-part documentary series shot entirely in Ethiopia over a 5 month period, showing the concerns of different Ethiopian peoples, their ways of life, and their customs and traditions.
Living with inhabitants of five Ethiopian ethnic groups and filming their daily lives, the series tells a number of stories: some unbelievable, others cruel, sad, dramatic, or endearing... in short, stories of Africa.
The soul of the five reports lies in the spontaneity of the people, their human essence, captured and observed by a small crew, thanks to the comaraderie built up over the crew's extended stay.
