The Future of Mud: A Tale of Houses and Lives in Djenne
Watch The Future of Mud: A Tale of Houses and Lives in Djenne Online Free FlixHQ. Through the story of a mason in Djenne, Komusa Tenapo, and his family, this documentary examines an African tradition of mud architecture in Mali. The environmental genius of these ancient construction techniques—thick walls with tiny windows that keep the interiors cool despite the stifling heat—is expressed in strikingly beautiful designs that have won the town of Djenne designation as a World Heritage site.
