Climate change is cutting Kenya in two: in the north, entire regions are suffering from a deep drought while in the south, populations find themselves threatened by rising water levels. Every week, Adam buys fish from Lake Victoria fishermen to sell at the cannery. A race against time and the sun begins in his unrefrigerated truck. On the Baringo Lake side, it's quite the opposite: residents have to deal with crocodiles, formerly far from the banks. As for the school, it has become an island and some children are forced to cross on makeshift rafts.

They assail drilling platforms with high-speed boats, seizing foreign nationals for future ransom negotiations. In 2015, a total of 73 such attacks occurred, leading to the abduction of 62 individuals. They represent the contemporary era of piracy, redefining kidnapping as a profitable enterprise, and viewing themselves as modern-day Robin Hood figures. Their primary targets are oil companies, which they accuse of exploiting the nation's natural resources without reciprocation. In this documentary, we followed soldiers, sailors, and pirates over several months, joining them on their raids to unveil their operational methods.

In Mauritania, the Harmattan blows, a dry, dusty wind that sweeps across the desert regions until it bury crops and villages; Sid Ahmed and Mohamed supply these landlocked areas; they are among the only ones to venture there.

They are nicknamed “the Reindeer People”. They are one of the most amazing tribes on the planet. There are only two hundred of them left and they live in the far north of Mongolia, in a deserted, inaccessible and frozen region. Always isolated from the world, the Tsaatans, these nomadic reindeer herders, have preserved their ancestral traditions and practice shamanism. They live in small family clans, inhabiting simple canvas tents in temperatures that drop to minus 40 degrees in winter. But they say they are happy to live like this, free, in the middle of sublime and preserved nature. And they never complain. Their happiness and their way of life, day by day, offer a striking contrast with our Western lives. But today, the modern world and technology are catching up with them. School, recently made compulsory for children, is at the center of all their questions. What to do? Protect children from progress they consider harmful or educate them and offer them the opportunity to integrate into civilization? These nomads know that they will have to choose between their traditions and contemporary life, between their freedom and comfort. Aware of being at a turning point in their history, will the Tsaatans manage to survive the encounter between their world and ours? This documentary offers us a spectacular journey into a timeless universe, miraculously preserved.

Description

Burma is not only fascinating because of its very rich history, but also its atmosphere, aromas and hospitality.

Occupied by the Mons, the Burmans and the British, Burma has known multiple cultures. T

he city of Bagan, “the land of golden roofs,” is a jewel of Burma. It is a testament to the past grandeur of the kings of Bagan who reigned over the first Burman empire.

There are monuments of Sri Lankan, Indian, Tibetan, Mon and Burman influence...

This majestic Buddhist archaeological site, comparable to Angkor in neighboring Cambodia, is home to more that 2,000 temples, stupas and pagodas, built between the 11th and 13th centuries and spread across 40 km2.

It is the largest concentration of Buddhist monuments in the world.

After having gone through the Sarabha Gate, a estige of the 9th century, you can admire a view of the entire old city from the top of the ThatbyinnyuPahto Temple: at 63 meters high it is the tallest monument in Bagan.

The construction of the Shwezigon Pagoda was begun in 1059 by King Anawrahta to shelter a jawbone and tooth of Buddha that he had obtained after his campaign against the Dali kingdom (in what is now Yunnan).

It was finished under the reign of his son Kyansittha in 1102: inside the complex there is a stone pillar that has inscriptions about the King.

The Ananda Temple is one of the most beautiful Buddhist monuments in Bagan. Built by King Kyansittha in 1091, it was originally dedicated to the “infinite wisdom” of the Buddha (anantapinya). According to Legend, Kyansittha had been inspired by the description that monks from India gave of their temple, which would explain the Ananda's Indian architectural features.

The Wetkyi Inn Gubyaukgyi Temple houses lovely frescos depicting scenes from the Jataka. The stairs inside lead to four Buddha images and the Hindu sculptures carved on the spire.

The Htilominlo Temple, famous for its fine stucco ornaments, was built between 1211 and 1218 by King Htilominlo (or Nandaungmya) to commemorate the fact that a parasol (a symbol of power) tilted towards him him during his enthronement. On the second floor, four buddhas have their backs to the central pillar, facing in the four directions.
