Description
At the foot of the Himalayas, along the border between India and Nepal, the Raji nomads collect the worthy honey of wild bees as they always have. They climb up extremely high trees in the huge Terai jungle and risk their lives for the harvest of the honey made by the biggest migrating bees in the world. With an exceptional camera, the world-famous photographer and film maker Erick Valli presents the leader of a small group of “honey hunters” who describes his activity in a very simple and logical way: “When city dwellers feel hungry, they go to a supermarket; when we are hungry, we go into the wood!”
