Trailer for documentary Darwin's Nightmare by Haubert Sauper. A tale about humans between the North and South, about globalization, and about fish. In Africa in the 1960s, the Nile Perch was introduced into Lake Victoria. Consequently, it eliminated almost the entire stock of the native fish species.
A devastating and extremely topical award-winning documentary. DARWIN'S NIGHTMARE is a shocking look at how globalization has caused a country to condemn the majority of its starving population to slavery, prostitution and drug addiction while every day over-fed Europeans dine off of its vast stocks of Nile Perch. Compulsory viewing for anyone enjoying the privileges of the Western lifestyle.
