Wakis, tree hunters

Wakis, chasseur d'arbres

Directing: Tanguy Djaka Yarissi

Synopsis

Wakis, a lumberjack in the Central African Republic, works with his family collecting wood to process into charcoal. But faced with its increasing scarcity—and to avoid conflicts with his neighbours—he must “hunt” trees further and further away from his production site. Tanguy Djaka Yarissi creates an accurate social chronicle about the insecurity of a traditional trade.
