The Mentawai



This is an absolutely breathtaking view into the lives of a remote tribe in Indonesia filmed by a young Rock and Roll videographer and a young photographer. I'll let the video speak for itself.

The Mentawai, Behind the Scenes Documentary from Joey L on Vimeo.



Here is the website for the Videograher, Cale Glendening:

And here are the links to the specific Blog posts about the trip. It truly is an amazing adventure to be able to experience this amazing, dying culture.

And here is a link to Joey L., the photographer shown in the video neck deep in the stream taking pictures. I had a chance to peruse through his work, and it's absolutely breathtaking.

Both these guys have an amazing body of work already. I'm looking forward to seeing more of it.

  3. I did. Reminds me of how fascinated I was with Nat Geo growing up. Life inspiring life!

    How's the family? We need to get together and see the little one before she's all growed up. It happens so fast!
