In the drought-hit southern region of Madagascar, farmer Zafisolo Louis sees goat farming as the best way to provide a future for his family. Goats don’t compete with humans for food, nibbling on the barren branches caused by deforestation. Their milk is nutritious - and makes delicious cheese. This, claims Zafisolo, makes goat farming an economical and appropriate response to the growing impact of the climate crisis he witnesses around him. In ‘Taste of the Sun’ by filmmaker Ary Misa Rakotobe, Zafisolo and his children tend their herds under the blazing sun and produce their unique tasting cheese under challenging circumstances, defying the elements to secure their future.
