Synopsis

Southern Morocco is a desert region where Sahrawis live. Several families still practice camel farming there, which allows them to produce milk and meat.

Imam, Hadrami, and Moulay belong to the Oulad Sbaa tribe, founded in the 16th century, whose members were Bedouins. They crisscross the desert with their animals between winter and summer quarters.

We share their daily routine in search of water and food for their herd, in harmony with the elements of the desert. Nature here, is seemingly hostile, but reveals unsuspected life for those who know how to adapt.
