The Village of Korah - A short documentary

YEAR: 2010<br />SYNOPSIS<br />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.<br /><br />ABOUT KORAH<br />The village of Korah is a small village just outside Addis Ababa, the capitol 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.<br /><br />MUSIC<br />Patrick Watson<br />"Man Like You" from the album Wooden Arms<br /><br />PRODUCTION CREDITS<br />Producer / Director / Cinematography: Sam Nuttmann and Keith Bolling<br />Editor / Sound Design / Motion Graphics: Sam Nuttmann<br /><br />MORE INFO<br />http://www.ReFocusMedia.org<br />http://www.Session7Media.com<br />http://www.MissionEthiopia.com
