Kipa Gaindimi - The Tale of the Mango Women

Artist Statement: In the time of our ancestors there were two mango ladies who lived in the tree in the village (left side of storyboard). The man sitting in the sago palm was hiding in order to spy on them. He declared love for one of the women, however there was another man wielding a stick (top right of board) who claimed both of them so a fight ensued.
