ERR together with Mondo and the film-makers writer
Kristo Elias, director Mihkel Ulk and cinematographer Madis Reimund
organised public screening to the documentary.
On
29th October 2016 the documentary “Market Economy” was premiered in Artis
cinema in Tallinn - 155 persons participating.
Briefly about the film:
Abebe
and Ashenafi are usual 10-year-old boys who were sent by their parents to Addis
Abeba, the capital of Ethiopia, to work as boot polishers to prevent their
families from starving.
They
work every day on the streets to earn a living and to help their
parents. You could see that they are among the lowest members of society
and they do not have a chance to break out of it.
Abtu
is an orphan and a hot blooded errand boy and work is the last thing he wants
to think about.
Bertukan
is a mother of three who carries heavy loads to make some money.
Another
very interesting group of people were wood carrying ladies, who gather
eucalyptus branches in the mountains surrounding the city and from state forest
and carry their heavy loads to Addis Ababa wood market. It is physically very
hard work, which would be challenging even to men. Besides carrying wood they
raise their children and in the meantime breastfeed their infants. The sights
we saw were very sad and unjust as many life situations in Ethiopia are today.
Mulugeta
is a well-educated tourist guide who is above all others thanks to knowing the
English language.
All
these Ethiopians are united by the biggest market in Africa, endless and
colorful Mercato. The documentary "Market Economy" observes 5 a
working day of 5 ordinary people in one of the poorest countries of the world
where even filming was an extraordinary challenge.
