Becoming a Man Among the
Borana
In the heart of Ethiopia, 12 year-old Wario belongs to the
Borana tribe. It is time for Wario to learn the difficult trade of salt labor,
in order to become a full-grown Borana with adult responsibilities.
He will first follow his father to the "mouth of the
devil", a volcano in which men risk their lives to extract salt. He will
then journey to the singing wells, where men form a 30 ft chain to fetch water
as they sing. With the camels packed with salt and water, father and son will
embark on the salt route, a long and perilous journey across the desert.
