Description:

Himba, struggle for survival Documentary filmed in the north of Namibia. This tribe live in a remote area far away of the modernity. They fight for the heritage and survived to many disasters. This is a trailer of the first part and the aim is follow a process of a few families. Film doesn’t have any support and donations are welcome. Fixer local producer in Opuwo, Jimmy Elia Tolu (I high recommend him for any production, reliable and concerned person).

    Interesting, but the way it was executed made it boring, sorry to say! Nothing really happened that made me think. Too much switching between black/gray(kinda mixed those badly) background with text and footage. I wanted to see more of your footage rather than something I can’t even read, and even if I could read, that much facts or history should be told through your footage! That’s what makes it interesting. :)
