Was he the Worlds Greatest Overland Explorer or the Biggest Liar?Perhaps no land journey in human history is more famous than Marco Polos legendary 24-year trek across Asia. But was it all just a big lie? As described in his 1299 book, The Description of the World, the peripatetic Venetian merchant encountered such wonders as the singing sand dunes of Dunhuang, China, mountains of salt in present-day Afghanistan, and the glories of the Mongol court of Kublai Khan. Generations of Europeans were spellbound by Polos account, yet in recent years some scholars have questioned its authenticity. For an extensive three part series in National Geographic, veteran photographer Michael Yamashita put the famed Venetians reputation to the ultimate test using Polos own book as his travel guide for a journey in the celebrated explorers footsteps.Yamashita retraced Polos route across ten countries, from Venice through restricted areas in Iraq and war zones in Afghanistan, over the old Silk Road into China and back again by way of Southeast Asia and India. Along the way he encountered many landmarks and peoples documented in Polos book, deepening his conviction that Polos account is indeed authentic. Yamashita shares dazzling images and fascinating stories from his own journey to the East, while making a strong, personal case for the veracity of the reports of his 13th-century predecessor. Yamashitas search for Marco Polo led to this series of documentary films that first aired on the National Geographic Channel Asia. Three 30-minute episodes, shot on 16 mm film. Initial airing: March 2004, National Geographic Channel Asia. Asian TV Awards: Best Cinematography, Best Original Music Score

Eritrea's War Tested Women Soldiers Documentary By Yonatan


ERITREA- With the support and advice of the N.U.E.W (National Union Of Eritrean Women) Yonatan Kelib spent seven months in Eritrea filming his first self-financed independent documentary. His documentary deals with the role Eritrean women played in the 30 year independence struggle against Ethiopia and its impact today on society.He wanted to know the personal stories of these Tegadelti [freedom fighters in Tigrinya], and what lead them to join the armed struggle, how their experiences in Meda [battle fields] helped form their perception of women’s rights issues and what type of future they believe awaits the next generation of Eritrean women. During the 30 year independence struggle, Eritrean women played a very important and significant role in helping secure this independence so this documentary allows these brave women [and men] tell their own stories in their own words. He is still editing this film but since he is a bussy man in grad school at NYU, it’s really hard for him currentyly to find time to complete this historic project, but he plans to complete this documentary in the near future because the sacrifices commited by the Women of Eritrea, for over three decades, has to documented for the World to see.
