| Abstract | In the heart of Ethiopia, 12 year-old Wario belongs to the Borana tribe. It is time for Wario to learn the difficult trade of salt labor, in order to become a full-grown Borana with adult responsibilities. He will first follow his father to the "mouth of the devil", a volcano in which men risk their lives to extract salt. He will then journey to the singing wells, where men form a 30 ft chain to fetch water as they sing. With the camels packed with salt and water, father and son will embark on the salt route, a long and perilous journey across the desert. |
