A documentary by Cafi Mohamud and Luca Cusani about the way Senegalese fishermen are loosing their livelihoods as a result of overfishing, particularly as a result of modern, hyperequipped industrial fishing boats. They go the way of some formerly powerful fishing ports such as Lowestoft. The video traces the economic, institutional and technological drivers leading to their demise. Interviewed people, notably Charles Clover, author of 'The end of the line', people from the European industry and the fisherfolk in Senegal themselves are saying it can't go on like this, yet it is still remarkably difficult in practice to change course. It gives a glimpse at the demographic pressures and the need for immigration in the face of lacking alternatives. Unless together we steer a radically different course, the seemingly inexorable march towards more complete destruction of natural resources and thus the present and future of people in these communities can not be stopped, certainly not by administrative means.
