Nous sommes l'Humanité

The Andaman Islands, far out in the Indian Ocean, are home to the Jarawa. Descended from the first humans who left Africa 70,000 years ago, they lived in Asia in complete isolation. Today, the last 400 members of the tribe are trying to protect their paradise. They are endangered by traders who provide them with alcohol and tobacco, and by tourism. The Indian government is trying to assimilate the Jarawa, not taking into account that their world has different rules. Those who abandon the white sand beaches thus often end up in filthy big cities. This documentary is the first time that a film crew has been able to come close enough to the Jarawa to capture a world where people are still free and unconditionally happy. (One World)
