Ethio Gabana is a specialty coffee company founded in Ethiopia by Ethiopians. We were fortunate enough to film their process and story, traveling all throughout the country to do so.
Meeting Worku was a highlight of the trip. He and his family were kind, wise, and welcoming. We filmed inside their house, at their farm, and around the community. Filming in these beautiful locations is always a treat and working with such a world renowned product like coffee is eye opening. To know our morning cup may have started in this guys backyard affords me a new appreciation for the process and gives us a desire to make decisions which help benefit Worku, his family, and his community.
One thing we appreciate about Ethio Gabana is their commitment to their community. At each site they install a clean water pump so the local community has access to safe drinking water. They’re also in the process of building a school at their Anderacha site as well as renovating one near Bochesa and helping to supply it with educational materials.

“ People say the pastoralist way of life is difficult, but there is no better life.”
We were commissioned to tell the story of pastoralists and the issues they face while highlighting the unique lifestyle their surroundings demand. We followed Faduuma, Abdi, and their families in their transition from the traditional pastoralist life they knew to becoming agro-pastoralists.

Minecraft/UNICEF
There are countless ways to play Minecraft, but this neighborhood in Addis Ababa chose to use it as a tool instead. Watch how an entire community comes together to turn a polluted area into a new park!
Ayaana was the DP for this film.
