These women cannot get health insurance, but their work gives them very good income and high praise from their communities.
In a mostly patriarchal society, it is the Haenyeo women who gain importance with those around them. However, the documentary shows that their future may not be bright thanks to pollution and sea garbage changing the oceans and increasing the global warming dangers for the world. After the Fukushima nuclear accident, the frozen water adds another danger, and this reveals how the women are now fighting to preserve their way of life. The movie premiered on October 11.
