THE LAST HONEY HUNTER
2017, USA, 35minDirector: Ben Knight
The Kulung people practice an old way of animism which is structured around the God Rongkemi. Mauli Dhan Rai believes to have been the chosen one of the gods for the honey harvesting rite. The exceptionally dangerous challenge consists of scaling rugged and sheer cliffs to gather the golden nectar made by the world’s largest honey bee. It is but a spiritual search based on the myth that Kulung is a ward of the gods, having protection or a shield that is not infinite.
