Ady Gasy
( Malagasy Way )

Nantenaina Lova
2014 - 83 min - HD - Couleur - France, Madagascar

"The Chinese make things, the Malagasy fix them". Just for the time of a film, let’s have fun reversing roles. Let’s imagine it isn’t for the economists to demonstrate their growth model anymore, but for the farmers, artists, craftsmen and streetwise sellers of all kinds to showcase their skills.
There are those who recycle tires into shoes, those who make lamps from sweetened condensed milk cans, those who transform zebu bones that were left by the stray dogs into soap and medication... In Madagascar, proverbs, music and recycling skills challenge economics with humour.
