Hombre vs. naturaleza: Can one survive the other?
Four stories that paint a portrait of man's complex relationship with the natural world. In El náufrago, a fisherman in Mexico battles for survival on the open seas for over a year, castaway after a freak storm. La ruta larga is the odyssey of a Cuban family across Panama's Darién Gap, maybe the world's most hostile jungle. And El Cascajo (Peru) and En el delta (Argentina) are stories about once-vibrant water ecosystems crippled by decades of frenetic commercial development — and the people fighting to restore them.
