Bothas´ Chance – a Khwe-San in Namibia
Bothas, a Khwe-San in Namibia, is searching a new perspective for his life. He combines the traditional world of his ancestors with the ultramodern life with cleverness. He is an idol of hope for the young people and has been invited to the German University of Cologne to realize a dictionary of his language Khwedam. I accompany his way of life in the semisavanne of Northeast Namibia and in the city over the years. Will he use his chance of life?
