"The Chinese make things, the Malagasy fix them."

Just for the time of a film, let's have fun reversing roles…

Let's imagine it isn't for the economists anymore to demonstrate their growth model, but for the farmers, artists, craftsmen, and streetwise venders of all kind to showcase their skills. There are those who recycle tires into shoes, those who make lamps from sweetened condensed milk cans, those who transform zebu bones that were left by the stray dogs into soap and medication.

Welcome to Madagascar, the island where we prefer proverbs and picturesque speech rather than graphics and equations.

Confronted with adversity and daily struggles, the Malagasy way of life is a mix of inventiveness, music, joie de vivre, fraternity, and above all, a sense of creative recycling. These are the keys to ADY GASY!
