The Fulani Shepherds Fighting to Keep Africa's Pastures Alive

This documentary follows the Fulani shepherds who still move across West and Central Africa with herds of zebu cattle and sheep, guided by water, grass and the dry season. Often misunderstood, their pastoral way of life is now under growing pressure, yet researchers value its deep ecological knowledge. The film captures the rhythm, dignity and challenges of keeping Africa's pastures alive. It is an illuminating watch about tradition, land and a changing continent.
