A documentary by Claire Savary

Under the Palaver Tree (54 mn)

In a small Beninese village named Guimbereru, time is set by the sun's path and tradition seems unchangeable. However, life has deeply changed since the Whites arrived. A gap has insidiously opened up between nearly hundred-year-old men and young people caught up in the wheel of globalization.
How can one talk and understand one another?
How can the history of the village be passed on before it disappears ?
