Synopsis

The Gurage ethnic group lives in southwestern Ethiopia, in the heart of a very fertile rural area. This tribe is defined by its incredible hospitality and agricultural know-how.

Sophie discovers the traditions of the growers of the Abyssinian banana tree. Its edible root, which can reach 40 kg, is a staple food for more than 10 million people, even in times of drought. This culture protects the region from famine.
