The Damned of the Sea

Thousands of small Moroccan fishermen from Essaouira, Safi and Agadir have to move further down south to Dakhla in the Sahara hoping to catch some fish. A hellish struggle starts. In the background, trawlers from foreign countries drag the waters with their death nets, killing an entire ecosystem.
