Abstract

The documentary, Cry Sea, by Luca Cusani and Cafi Muhamud, examines the fishing crisis from the point of view of artisanal fishermen from Kayar, Senegal, northwest Africa. These men have to face despair and poverty because of the cost of fuel as well as diminishing resources. Quite often, the only solution they can think of is emigration to Europe. Indeed, hundreds of fishermen from Kayar have tried this adventure, heading for the Canary Islands aboard their pirogues. Scores of them have drowned, and more than 500 have been sent back to their villages, ruined and even more desperate than before.
