Ethnographic film

Ethnographic film is like a fancy word for a special kind of movie. It's a movie that shows people from different cultures and how they live.

Imagine you're watching a movie about a tribe that lives in a faraway jungle. You'd see how they get food, build houses, and talk to each other. But you'd also get to learn about their beliefs, their rituals, and how they see the world, which is different from how you might see it.

Ethnographic films are kind of like going on an adventure to see how people far away live their lives. It helps us understand and appreciate other cultures, and learn something new about the world.
