Idodo
Ursula Ulmi
How did reef fish get their bright colours? An old legend from the Ziag-Zagaz clan from Papua New Guinea provides an answer that is both exciting and surprising. The film interpretation of this legend underlines the cultural value of stories handed down through generations and the profound human need to find explanations for what we observe. The short film was created in close collaboration between artists from Papua New Guinea and Switzerland
