'Between two worlds' by documentary filmmaker Bettina Haasen is a ethnografical road movie which offers a confidential glance in the rural life of the Wodaabe tribe. The plot turns around Bettina's desire to locate an old friend, Musa Daurido, who lives as a Wodabee nomad between the Sahara and the savannah in Nigeria (See map). The filmmaker studied African languages and culture in Berlin and speaks the local dialect. This enables her to create an intimate atmosphere with the people she meets and interviews.

  • She sure under-played all the preparation and ritual that most church weddings involve! Try explaining bridesmaid dresses to the guy and see what he makes of that.

  • they were speaking hausa not fulani which is the language of the woodabe. even the translation was a bit off. he kept calling her unbeliever. how do you unbelievers marry etc, both of their hausa sucked no disrespect but i loved it though, could not stop laughing my ass off haha

  • @MsColdCanada America has such a complicated society, it would be very difficult for many to get a real view of how works, even if thoroughly explained.

    The Nacirema Society gives an interesting outside look into America, ie: dental healthcare, medicine
