Wizards of Wood | Full Documentary | SLICE

On the northwest coast of Madagascar live the Zafimaniry people, an ethnic group known for being the sole remaining repository of an incredible wood crafting knowledge.
Members of this community are famous for creating delicate and poetic geometric patterns reflecting their history.
Sadly, the Zafimaniry woodcraft culture is endangered, sharing a common fate with the forest it depends on.
Follow Dadamundgi and other young and wise souls of the village as they are trying to uphold a region’s age-old tradition. Witness these men’s commitment to the central role nature has come to serve in each and every aspect of their lives.
