In the heart of Burkina Faso, where extreme drought threatens survival, the villagers of Boa turn to an ancient power. Meet the bagbas - spiritual leaders believed to command the weather. In this gripping documentary, we travel to the arid borders of Mali and Niger to witness a community on the brink. Led by their guardian, Tibo Soa, the villagers perform sacred rituals, dances, and sacrifices in a desperate bid to summon life-giving rain.
