This first ethnographic film about the
Dassanetch in Southern Ethiopia follows children in their
everyday life. In presenting concrete moments of
interaction the film refers to the social space in which
children in Dassanetch grow up.
We see siblings in competition and as companions in their
games and work. The film also demonstrates the roles of the
parents who introduce constrains. The result is
nevertheless a picture where many doors are wide open to
children in Dassanetch.
