Anansi Masters - Curacao G02 - Koeyers, Eligio (Boy)- Mister Throw Far Away

On his journey, he trips over a strange gap. While examining the gap his hand gets stuck in the hole and Nanzi meets mister Throw Far Away. Nanzi learns that there is only one way to get out of the hole: he has to ask mister Throw Far Away to toss him away.

After he is released Nanzi devises a ruse to use mister Throw Far Away to surreptitiously catch food. Miss Goat and Miss Cow do not escape. But mister Monkey thinks he is smarter than Nanzi.

Is that possible? About Anansi Masters: The Anansi Masters project is developed by Vista Far Reaching Visuals (Mr. Jean Hellwig) and partners.

It is designed as a public digital platform at anansimasters.net and opened in 2007. At the website one can find information about the story character of Nanzi (or Anansi or Kweku Ananse), with English and Dutch subtitled video recordings of storytelling in several countries in different languages, educational modules about storytelling for use at schools and academies, and digital issues of the Anansi Masters Journal published since the beginning of the project.

All storytelling videos are also published on Youtube. The stories of the Anansi tradition originate in Africa and were exported to other parts of the world through slave trade and migration. In Anansi Masters, the similarities and differences between the stories and storytellers, who tell in their own language, can be found.

Anansi Masters initiates different activities all over the world where stories from this oral tradition can be found. The founder has the ambition to film as many stories from this tradition as possible in as many countries as possible. Anansi Masters collaborates with writers, theatre makers, filmmakers, researchers, schools and of course with many many storytellers.
