  • From North Cameroon to Chad, from the land of the ancient elephants to the dunes of Kanem, this film is a non-stop journey in the form of a logbook, through a little known, almost forbidden land that is a wealth of astonishing countryside and unusual people. The Kapsiki villages hanging off the side of volcanic peaks, our itinerary of contrast and adventure continues towards the wildlife reserves of Waza then on to N’Djaména and the Chari River. Finally we arrive at the banks of Lake Chad with its fishermen and its polders in the middle of the desert. And to finish, the oasis which borders the small town of Mao, in the province of Kanem.
    Director : RENAUD Jean-Thomas

    Thank you for this video. I like to see how other people live. These people are so in tune and living in harmony with their environment, we should all have this basic skill. I'm glad to see that they are still eating their nutritious indigenous crops of sourgum, maize, etc, and not the GMO over=ptocessed junk foods that are giving so many people here in the US diabetes, obesity and other diseases. The landscapes are beautiful too. Very interesting.

    • @PAULLONDEN
      @PAULLONDEN 5 лет назад +2

      Ok ....but everybody deserves respect , not just because you're old..... That's another one of Africa's stereo types , that it's "rare to live long there" ....Some people manage to live long in adverse situations because they had the right genes , or were lucky.... This particular fascinating old man had countless wives that cared for him....No surprise that most of *them* are dead.....'

      @GidiVibesTV 6 лет назад +10

      Because they are western production then it has to be a wrong narrative? In fact I have learnt more about my continent from western documentary. If you have a different story why not consult a film producer in your country or come up with a proposal to a TV station for funding? The truth is Africa is grossly underdeveloped and our people are suffering and if this kind of documentary can highlight some of our shortcomings maybe we all can devise a future plan for improvement?.

    Thanks for posting Renauld Jean-Thomas! Question: around 16:56 toolmaking. There is an important part missing. Right? The toolmaker put clay around the metal. Burns it and remove the burned clay. This looks stupid. The background report does not fit to the scenes. Or have I misunderstood something? By the way. I think those crafts are very important to document. These knowledge which still exist shows how to do complex things just with materials from soil and wood and fire. To the audience: would you know how to make it by yourself?

    90% of Americans have never even heard of Chad and probably at least half the French! A landlocked north central African country with an American male’s first name. Interesting!

      Jon Stewart American? Chad is a Welsh name. But the country gets its name from the lake Chad; where Chad means 'lake'.
