For centuries, Ethiopia’s Lower Omo Valley has been a crossroads for many distinct tribes. During times of drought, natural resources become scarce, escalating clashes between groups. In an ever-changing landscape, young men and women come of age in an unfamiliar time. nnThe story is narrated from two unique perspectives. Uri- a young boy from the Hamar tribe who becomes a man during his rite of passage ceremony, and Segelgwo- an elder chief of the Daasanach, who reflects on his community’s uncertain future.nnYou can view behind the scenes videos about the making of this film here: nnhttps://joeyl.com/blog/all/post/peopleofthedeltannnCREDITSnnnFeaturing: Uri Muda Wado, Argileb Tuchamoi, Poshi Mayto Woroo, Hassan Yiergilieb, Ente Algo AskannDirected By: Joey L.nnCinematography By: Sean StiegemeiernnWritten By: Joey L, Charity Paniamogan, Uri Muda WadonnIn Collaboration With: Hamar, Dassanach & Kara Tribes, Southern Nations, Nationalities & Peoples Region, EthiopiannProduced By: Dawit Shimelis, Blue Media PLC, Anteneh Endale Mamo, Susie HayasakannEditor: Stavros StavropoulosnnAdditional Editing: Jon Connor, Joey LnnOriginal Score By: Tony AndersonnnAdditional Music By: Salomon Lighthelm, Serac by Luke Atencio, Slow Cold by Afterlife parade, www.MusicBed.comnnProduction Manager: Caleb Adams nnAudio And Mix: Jeff Pacenn1st AC/DIT: Porter McKnightnnGaffer And Electrician: Andrew RedpathnnGrip: “Straight” Dave KryslnnColor: Lilit Digital Lab [Brazil-SP], Laura Futuro - Co Ordinator, Sabrina Wilkins - Co Ordinator, Julia Bisilliat - Color Artist, Joana Reis - Workflow ManagernnTitle Motion Graphics: Craig GowansnnAdditional Translation: John Elino, Uri Muda Wado, Kedir, ChaunchernnSpecial Thanks: Kickstarter and all supporters, Tourism Commission of Ethiopia, Ethiopian Consulates of NYC, LA, Toronto, & London, White House Custom Color, Zylights, Lowepro, Pixipixel, Red Carnation Hotel London Less
