This video jewelry box contains a short film entitled, "Golden Girl." The film has interviews I conducted with women from many different cultures discussing their gold traditions. Eastern Indian women discuss the importance gold plays in their weddings and with their children. A woman from Ghana talks about African royalty and their massive collections of gold. In fact, the King of the Ashanti tribe wears so much gold that he has to carried because the "gold is so heavy he cannot walk and must be carried from village to village on a pallinquin."
