Fading Footprints

.

Set on the outskirts of the Kalahari desert – the ancestral home to the indigenous KhoiSan people of Southern Africa – Fading Footprints tells the story of an ancient culture on the brink of extinction. The Ju|’hoansi tribe are one of over 30 dialects of indigenous San people who hold the precious wisdom of over 60 000 years. Now, they find themselves at a crossroad in time – stuck between the old world and the new. It is said that each time a San elder dies, an entire library of knowledge vanishes. To survive in this world, they must move from an old, nomadic way of life to a newer, modern society. But at what cost?
