Abi Gul's father spent eleven years fighting in the Pakistan courts
to keep the Kalash valleys from being logged. For the Kalash, who
have animist cosmology, trees are very sacred. Three years ago Abi
Gul's father was killed by a bomb that was thrown into their little
two-room home. Her uncle continued the court case and finally won
the judgement. Abi Gul was very serious and quiet. Very dillegent,
she stayed by my side and assisted me as I photographed her friends
and relatives in her small village. |
