Synopsis

Forty-five million years ago, Gondwanaland split apart to form India, Africa and South America. Spellbound by the ancient myth of the Gonds who inhabited the supercontinent, Tahir Shah vowed to follow their path through India and Pakistan to Uganda and Rwanda, Kenya and Liberia, before crossing the Atlantic Ocean for Brazil and the ýPatagonian glaciersý.Roughing it for most of the journey, Shah shared his travels and his tales with a diverting mix of eccentric and entertaining characters, from Osman and Prideep, Bombayýs answer to Laurel and Hardy, to Oswaldo Rodrigues Oswaldo, a well turned out Patagonian version of Danny De Vito.
