The Botanist



Directors Maude Plante-Husaruk and Maxime Lacoste-Lebuis met expert botanist Raïmberdi while travelling in Central Asia. His reflections on the nomadic life, and on practices that are rooted in an ancient rural lifestyle, offer a fascinating personal record of the region’s history, and the extreme hardships its population experienced after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
