Ashes and Life

Cycle of a savana at the edge of the forest burnt once a year

Every year, in Côte d'Ivoire, the Baoule people burn savanna at the edge of the forest zone to regenerate it. The film shows the behavior of the wildlife as the fire advances, and the recolonization of the savanna by the fauna and flora after the fire.
