FA’A’AMU, THE ENTRUSTED CHILDREN OF POLYNESIA

Discovering these territories close to paradise

An episode from the series OVERSEAS PASSION

Synopsis

Fa'a'amura'a is a Polynesian custom that involves entrusting one's child to another family without severing blood ties.

Between ancestral customs and the constraints of the law, this practice raises questions about the future of a tradition that binds families as much as it challenges them.
