Episode 1: Màthraichean Mosuos/Fire Girl
55 minutes
Aig oir Loch Lugu, ann an Yunnan, tha coimhearsnachd iongantach màthrachail nam Mosuos a' fuireach. Chan eil iad a' creidsinn ann an riaghailtean co-cheangailte ri pòsadh.
Tha Touentou aon bhliadhna air fhichead, agus tha dà naoidhean aice. Tha diofar athraichean aca, ach tha am modh-beatha aca a' ciallachadh nach eil an athair a' gabhail compàirt sam bith nam beatha.
At the edge of Lugu Lake in Yunnan, the Mosuos are a unique matriarchal society. Ignoring the rules of marriage, they don't believe in the oath of fidelity.
Touentou is a 21-year-old girl who lives among them. Although she is only 21, Touentou has already got two little babies, each one of them from a different father. As tradition dictates, the fathers have no role to play in the children's lives. Show less
