Thumbs up Killing The Shepherd

This will be an interesting watch methinks:

A remote community in Africa, led by a woman chief, attempts to break the stranglehold of absolute poverty by waging a war on wildlife poaching. For decades illegal wildlife poaching by both subsistence and bush meat gangs has led to the government declaring this community’s homeland “depleted” of wildlife.

The chief finds help in the form of a safari operator. They collaborate to bring stability to the community in the face of threats from disease, food instability, and rampant alcoholism that hamper access to basic necessities like health care and education. Dark forces including South African land speculators, criminal poaching gangs, and her own people conspire against the chief. Even elements from the outside modern world work against her.

Its extremely sad to see such a beautiful place as this being utterly destroyed by greed and mostly from outside sources looking for aphrodisiacs from horns and tusks and gall bladders and such. It must be overwhelming for people trying to preserve their birthright.

You often make light of serious situations?
Guess if you are not personally effected it's OK in your world to make jokes?
