The Hunters of the Golden Mountains.

« …and Kublai Khan sat in his gold incrusted cage and four elephants carried him. Surrounded and protected by an army of 10,000 hawkers from the Kerei tribe… » (Marco Polo 1293) Marco Polo might have been the first to tell the world about the « Bird and Man » phenomenon in the remote country of Mongolia, but there is no doubt that the courageous Kazakh warriors of the Altai Mountains practiced the ancient art of hawking for centuries beforehand; Training their golden eagles to catch rabbits, foxes and even wolves between their stretched out talons.

At sunrise, twenty adolescent boys aged between 12 to 22 undergo the rite of passage that will bring them into the adult world. Close by their sisters and cousins come before the knife as they, too, experience ritual excision. Despite the official ban on female genital mutilation introduced in Kenya since 2001, the girls know that without undergoing the ritual their chances of finding a spouse and getting married would be seriously compromised. In the midst of this, the wife of a local chief protests in vain. Rebecca Lolosoli has been campaigning against the practice of female circumcision, though her pleas fall upon deaf ears. In her forties, the charismatic Lolosoli was invited to the UN to speak on the issue so close to her heart, and happens to be founder of Umoja ( »Unity » in Swahili), a village where the law is in the hands of women…
