The Swallow Nest Hunters of Borneo | SLICE | FULL DOCUMENTARY

Описание: Deep in the mountains of Borneo, Indonesia, countless caves lie discreetly. Despite the astounding cave paintings, local villagers are seeking something else with a monetary value: swallow’s nests.

Swallow’s nests are a valued product as a delicacy in some Asian countries, but their number is declining rapidly. Tewet, a respected elder in the village, has harvested swallow’s nests for decades.

He worries his trade of the nests may disappear in the near future, and tries to preserve this ancestral tradition.
