The Mursi - The Land is Bad (17x1)

Ausstrahlung: Jul 17, 1991

The Mursi, the inhabitants of the Omo Valley on the far edge of southwest Ethiopia feel that after a series of natural and man-made disasters, the land they live on is turning against them. Despite this they remain faithful to old ways and traditions, herding cattle and cultivating sorghum, even as the Omo's flood level drops continuously.
