The book with the included mobile application will reveal an intimate insight to the peoples of over thirty iconic cultures from around the world. It will give you the opportunity to be captivated into unknown and unspoiled realms, filled with the pageantry of ancient tradition. From the Himalayas with the Sharchop in Bhutan to the Mundari on the dry, isolated vast plains of South Sudan. The images are fascinating, if slightly unsettling and transcend rich cultural prosperity, symbolism and pride in the face of the looming threat of modern society. Contrasted by the (360 °) film that will not only take you to the dazzling splendor, but also the reality of day-to-day life of our ever-changing planet. At the junction between Western civilisation and theirs, we are forced to question and search beyond our familiar frames of reference, towards a deeper understanding of humanity.
