On this beach, a group of fearless men try to tame sleeping giants every day. They depend on it to feed their families. They work incredibly hard to recover pieces of metal weighing hundreds of kilos from the carcasses of sunken ships and sell them for a measly 150 dollars a ton. It's a titanic struggle that often lasts all day, which they can only overcome with the strength of their arms, their courage and their mutual help
