From the show

A filmmaker has told FRANCE 24 about the problems faced by the people of Madagascar as they try to survive, but also care for the environment. Sira Thierij has made a film that shows why people feel they have to chop down the forests to plant crops so they have food to eat, which inevitably lead to major ecological problems. Her film, “Madagascar on Fire”, also reveals the efforts afoot to try to tackle the problem. She spoke to us in Perspective.
