Forest Keepers – The Batwa Experience
|
| For thousands of years, the Batwa made their home in the rainforest of Southwestern Uganda, their unique culture interwoven with that of the forest. Everything changed in 1991 when the Ugandan government, in the name of conservation, evicted the Batwa from the rainforest. Dispossessed, the Batwa now live at the fringes of Uganda’s society, unable to return to their ancestral home. This film follows three generations of the Kabwana family and documents the Batwa Experience program’s efforts to preserve their culture and transmit their forest traditions to the new generation. |
