Between the Desert and the Pacific Ocean - Fishers Who Risk Their Lives

This documentary follows the daring fishers of Huarmey in Peru, who scale vertiginous cliffs between the desert and the Pacific Ocean to feed their families. Men like Purunga risk death daily on the rock faces above a churning sea. The film captures the courage, poverty and skill behind an extraordinary way of making a living. Breathtaking and humbling, it reveals lives lived at the edge. Free to watch in HD on Dr Documentary.
