Director: Sam Nuttmann | Producer: Sam Nuttmann
Focus Years: 2010 | Country: United States
Synopsis:
A short documentary that explores the current state of one of Ethiopia's poorest villages, the village of Korah and the challenges the people there face every day.
The village of Korah is a small village just outside Addis Ababa, the capital city of Ethiopia. The village was founded over seventy five years ago by people inflicted with leprosy, seeking treatment in Addis. Three generations later, over 100,000 people live in Korah, most of whom have leprosy, HIV/AIDS, are widows, or orphans. Their extreme poverty has forced many of the villagers to forage through a local trash dump to find enough food to survive each day.
