- Summary:
- The Ait Atta tribe of the High Atlas mountain range in Morocco preserves their ancestral right of access to the Agdal, a communal land management system that dates back hundreds of years. The film follows the Ben Youssef family₂s arduous transhumant journey from the desert-like landscape of Nkob to the green pastures of Agdal Igourdane, throughout uneven terrain of steep climbs and descents of these High Atlas mountains. They migrate each summer with their 800 goats, donkeys, mules, camels, and dogs, as they embark on this formidable journey on foot.
