- Summary:
- "Famed anthropologist Louis Sarno discovered the music of the Bayaka pygmies, one of the oldest peoples on the planet, nearly 30 years ago, and dedicated his life to their study and preservation. Following Sarno's death in 2017, the filmmakers of this documentary travelled to the rain forests of the Central African Republic to live with the Bayaka pygmies. They provide a crucial ethnographic portrait at a moment when their centuries-old cultural traditions appear on the verge of disappearing forever."--Container.
