Bosnia Hôtel
Thomas Balmès
1996 - 50 min - Beta numérique - Couleur - France

The life of the Samburu warriors in their village of the North Kenya. Feasts, songs of women, and celebration of the circumcision, when young adults become warriors...
But today, being a Samburu warrior also means wearing a blue helmet in the UN troops, and the Samburus went to Bosnia to part Europeans at war.
They tell their stories : fear, bomb, snow, massacres... and the money they used to build houses or to buy cattle.
A surprising glance at the tribal side of the war that shows that Europeans must be crazy...
