Summary
Filmed during the pre-Amin era in the Karamoja District, northeastern Uganda, this five-part documentary looks at life in a traditional Jie homestead during a particularly harsh, dry season. To the Jie, cattle are the source of all happiness, providing security and order in an uncertain and often hostile environment, hence the age-old blessing, "May you always live with herds."
