518    Originally produced by Royal Anthropological Institute in 
       2017. 
520    In the highlands of Tigray - northern Ethiopia - on the 
       edge of the escarpment that descends steeply to the 
       Danakil dessert, Hagos Mashisho and Desta Gidey have 
       toiled and struggled for years to turn the rugged slopes 
       of the East African Rift Valley into fertile ground. They 
       have grown crops here not only to feed themselves and 
       their family, but also to share with others, in particular
       the pilgrims who regularly pass by on their way to the 
       monastery of Gundagundo. Touched by the kindness of their 
       hosts, the pilgrims have given them the biblical names 
       "Abraham" and "Sarah". The film explores the work ethos 
       and grace of these Tigrean farmers: the cheerful mood with
       which they do what needs to be done; the devotedness to 
       the tasks at hand; the coordinated movements of humans and
       animals as they work when ploughing, sowing, harvesting, 
       threshing; - and finally those moments of invocation when 
       the dependence on nature and the transcendent are 
       acknowledged. "Abraham & Sarah" is the first film in a 
       series entitled "Guardians of productive landscapes".
