A sensitive portrayal of the people and the environment around Lake Volta in Ghana. This enormous man-made lake, the largest in the world, spans half the country and its surface is scattered with eerie tree trunks where dense forests once stood. Fishing is now one of the main industries here, demanding long hours in often challenging conditions, and the work follows the boys who live and work on the water.
