pearl necklaces, reed boats, baskets

How do you tie a pearl necklace? How do you carve a bow and arrow? How do you use a traditional Peruvian reed boat for fishing? Children in Peru, Venezuela and Papua New Guinea learn this from parents or older people. They filmed a small excerpt from their everyday life and share it with you.

The children learned how to make films in workshops in their home towns. We are showing the films at the Humboldt Forum in a cinematic experience that allows you to participate in the lives of the children. A presenter will guide you through the afternoon.

We will be showing the films with German voices. Check out the exhibitions on the 2nd floor to see if you can find them.
