FRESH BITES
Before They Pass Away
On the subject of culture, we'd like to
draw your attention to photographer
Jimmy Nelson. For his masterpiece,
‘Before they pass away', he photographed
more than 35 different cultures around the
world in a period of two and a half years.
This resulted in a series of wonderful portraits
of indigenous peoples in the world's most
remote areas - from the Huli and Kalam
tribes in New Guinea to the Tsaatan in
Mongolia and the Mursi in Ethiopia.
Nelson has beautifully gathered all these
peoples and many more in this huge coffeetable
book, Before They Pass Away forever.
"Cicade de Deus"
A raw movie portrait of life
in Brazil's favelas.
"House of Spirits"
About life in Chile in
the mid-20th century,
featuring stars
including Meryl Streep,
Winona Ryder and
Antonio Banderas.
"Mama Mia"
The blue waters of Greece
and Abba's enchanting
tunes guarantee lots of
fun and enjoyment.
Sapiens
A brief history of humankind
"Goodbye Bafana"
About Nelson Mandela's
life in prison on
Robben Island.

A hundred thousand years ago,
there were as many as six different
species of humans. Today only
one has survived: Homo Sapiens.
That's us. But why is it that our
species is the only one that has
made it to this day? And how have
we developed as Homo Sapiens?
Why do we believe in gods, in money
or in books? In a thoroughly enjoyable
book, author Harari takes us on a
tour of human history to explain
why we have become the most
important species.
"Mufasa, The Lion King"
With all the complexities
of human nature and
culture, sometimes
animals are easier to
understand.
