The Mekong - Grounds of Plenty| 47mins
Director: Rajesh Daniel | Producer: MPOWER, USER & Intl Rivers
Focus Years: 2011 | Country: Thailand
Synopsis:
The story of how fish from the Mekong River are caught and sold, cooked and consumed, by the people of the Mekong region. The rich wild capture fisheries of the Mekong River and its ecosystems feed and support not only people living alongside the river, but are crucial for the livelihoods of millions of people across mainland Southeast Asia who trade, sell and cook them. Caught using an array of nets, baskets and traps, cooked in many amazing ways, the Mekong River’s wild fish catch is central to the region’s food security. Through the stories of the people themselves, the film shows the journey of the wild capture fish from fisher to trader to cook to consumer - its passage through networks of trade as people work through the night and day to transport the catch to villages and towns, to markets, homes and restaurants.
