The crew must overcome unforeseen obstacles as they produce the images.It all starts at a gallery installation in New York. The prints are removed from the walls, and taken back to the subjects in Ethiopia. Watch the reactions of Joey's subjects when they see a large scale portrait of themselves for the first time.All orders come with a 52 minute director's cut, with exclusive scenes not in the TV version. A portion of sales will be donated directly to Survival international, helping tribal people of the Omo Valley defend their rights, protect their lands and determine their own futures.
