Six hundred million people on the planet live on the water or just around it. The documentary looks at these people and their particular cultures. In despite of this common denominator of water, each culture has developed different solutions to the same problems. We will discover how they live, their methods of transport and what diseases they suffer from. We will travel to markets on the Mekong, through the river towns of the Amazon and to Ganvie, the Venice of Africa. This work offers magnificent photography.
