Afar: dove i sogni e la terra bruciano
Directed by
Afar, Ethiopia, is considered the cradle of humanity. The story of mankind began here millions of years ago, but today the area is one of the most inhospitable on Earth. Persistent drought caused by climate change has made the savannah arid and threatens the life of the local population. Through the accounts of LVIA NGO operators working in the area we learn of the population’s daily battle to defend their right to live in the area.
