In Uganda’s vast Karamoja region, the Karamojong people maintain a profound connection to their land, ancestral traditions and cattle, symbols of both survival and cultural identity. Confronted by water scarcity, conflict and an increasingly fragile environment, their pastoral way of life faces growing challenges.

Through the lives of four young men: Angura, Houlong, Lotyang and Homuren. Claudia Revidat explores the bonds of brotherhood, resilience and the responsibility of protecting their herds. Their stories reveal the sacrifices behind a life shaped by nature, where cattle represent far more than wealth: they embody identity, belonging and the hope of a future.

Sentinels of Karamoja is an intimate portrait of friendship, dignity and the enduring relationship between humanity and the natural world.
