Description
Summary:The film recounts the life of children living on the street in Gondar, Ethiopia, by witnessing the interaction between two children and myself. The entire film was shot in the room of Ethiopia Hotel. This limited space allows the film to focus on our communication and captures some of the ideas that enable them to endure and survive on the street. Indeed, this film is more a sensitive testimony than a scientific documentary. This hybrid approach aims to explore new trends in visual anthropology, including the issue of dealing with intimacy and subjectivity.
