About :
Spread across the 6 provinces and 22 regions that make up Madagascar, the Malagasy population is thus called to live on a single island. But, this same people is also arranged in a very broad ethnic diversity. It includes 18 tribes (18 ethnic groups) that are listed in the four corners of the large island, from east to west, from north to south through the center. These different ethnic groups each have their particularities but also their similarities. The Vezo are natives of the south, nomadic people of the seas, they keep strong traditions while adapting, as much as possible, to the different aspects of the modern world that affects them. It is in the company of Christophe, a Vezo fisherman, his wife Francine and their children from the village of Tsifota, that the director takes us into the meanders of Vezo traditions. From the ancestral construction of a dhow in the same way that the Bretons taught their ancestors, to that of their small pirogue with its characteristic square sail, we will experience the daily life of fishermen and coastal captains. It is the entire economy of the south-eastern region that lives from the sea. An economy that escapes the constraints of modernity, a society, the Vezo, which also knows how to take advantage of it to facilitate its daily life with more or less happiness. The Vezo are a proud people who fully maintain their traditions in a world that is changing around them but who also know that they must, in order to maintain their traditions, accept a little modernity so as not to suffer the full force of the climatic hazards in particular that are coming.
