Living in Orango | Hippos Rule the Sea, Women Rule the Dead | 4K Travel Documentary Off the coast of Guinea-Bissau lies Orango, an island where hippos swim in the sea and are protected as sacred beings. Here, children inherit their mother’s clan, women traditionally choose their husbands, build the family home, and help guide unfinished souls into the next world. In this 4K travel documentary, discover how people live on Orango, how men and women divide ownership and risk, and why ancient Bijagó traditions are beginning to disappear as education, migration, and modern life reach the island.
