Stunning images of women working on a moon-like landscape frame the unrelenting cycle of work of the women of Ada who harvest salt with their bare hands. The natural forming salt lagoon has provided income for the local women for over three hundred years. A sound track by Patty Stotter, traditional work songs and a song written by Ghanaian musicians, join with the vivid imagery by Marcia Rock.
