Pygmies in Paris. Last June a group of Bayaka pygmies from central Africa came to Paris to perform. It was their first journey out of the rainforest and a far cry from their nomadic hunter-gatherer existence.
Tonight's film documents their unique polyphonic singing and records the reactions of the pygmies to Paris - and of Paris to the pygmies. Director Mark Kidel
