With Almost Nothing (2000)
• December 15th, 2000 • 1h 0min
Documentary
Overview
In Cape Verde, where the majority of the population is young, children use olive oil cans, bits of sandals, leftover tires and pieces of cardboard to build their own toys. The absence of a consumer society and the challenges posed by insularity have led them to invent their own recreational independence with almost nothing.
