Deep in the Loita hills of remote Kenya, the people of the Masai tribe mark a warrior’s passage to manhood with a sacred ceremony. This tradition, called Eunoto, happens once every generation and remains in-tact to this day. Only a tiny handful of foreigners have or will ever see Eunoto with their own eyes, until now. Sundance alumni Matt Goldman and renowned photojournalist Elizabeth L. Gilbert gained unprecedented access to this week long rite of passage and captured something beyond their wildest expectations. With stunning cinematography and a cutting edge original score, Goldman has created a visceral and poetic portrait of the participants and esoteric rituals of Eunoto. It is at once, a rare document of primal-ism, and a tribute to vanishing cultures the world over. |
