A Wala story drawn and told by students from students from 4 schools from the North of Ghana: Sawla District Assembly Junior High School, Jentilpe RC Junior High School, Saint Monica?s RC Junior High School & Sawla Girls Model Junior High School.
This is part of a series of 5 short documentaries available in Catalan subtitles.
Objectives
This project started with a drawing contest done at 500 students in several cities of the North of Ghana. The best of them spent a day drawing inspired by the popular tale about two trees they know a lot: chihaa and oraa. Shabihatu, Joana and Rehan narrated it in Wala language and, finally, Taller Estampa animated it. The result is truly collective and unique.
