Au centre de la terre, des puits et des hommes

At the Center of Earth, of Wells and Men
Al centro della terra, dei pozzi e degli uomini

The film is about desertification, difficult access to water, the impact of these problems on a nomad community of animal breeders. A man at the edge of a well, wearing a rudimentary harness and holding a camera, is let down 126 m into the well where he meets two other men who work at the bottom of the well. This is the world of the traditional welldiggers of Niger. Through interviews with the foreman and the workers, the film documents the skills these men employ to reach the water down deep beneath the sand.
