"Araya" is an ancient natural salt mine on a peninsula in northeastern Venezuela that, by 1959, was still being worked by hand, five centuries after the Spanish first discovered it. The documentary captures striking images of the salineros’ daily routines, their archaic techniques, and their ultimate disappearance when industrial extraction took over.
