Dance and music as a story in Mukuno village, traditional Batwa indigenous tribe from the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in Uganda.


Batwa members act out a story with music song and dance in the village house of Mukuno. They are a group of Batwa pygmies from the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in Uganda. They were indigenous forest nomads before they were evicted from the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest when it was made a World Heritage site to protect the mountain gorillas. The Batwa Development Program now supports them.
