The Custodians

DESCRIPTION

Over the last 40 years, commercial overfishing and bottom trawling have turned Scotlands once-thriving west coast waters into sparse, lifeless deserts. Patagonia Films The Custodians follows the work of four locals from the west coast of Scotland who are reclaiming their natural coastlines. Theyre restoring wildlife, creating sustainable industries and showing us how we can work with, not against, our ocean.
