Director Farida Pacha spent a season with one of these families, observing the very particular rhythms of their lives.
Liberia, a nation scarred by 14 years of brutal civil war, stands at a critical moment in its history as it heads for its second democratic election in October 2011.

Deployed yearly since 2007, it is the first such unit to ever take part in a peacekeeping mission.
