Fisherman Fredy Guardia has been catching the main ingredient in Peruvian ceviche for more than 60 years. He knows the ocean outside Lima as well as anyone. The effects of overfishing have made his memory of the old days even sweeter. Meet him in the award-winning short, 'Home At Dawn.'

Ravelo was trapped; He couldn't afford to continue paying the local loan shark to rent fishing equipment, because he couldn't catch fish to sell and make his payments. He couldn't catch fish because the mangrove estuaries had been depleted of wood for fire, in turn decimating the population of fish and seafood.
When Ravelo was hired by Eden Reforestation Projects, he was not only able to make an income planting trees, but his environment began to revitalize.
Eden Reforestation Projects hired Outskirt Films to tell this story on the remote coast of Madagascar. This powerful story was filmed in Madagascar by Outskirt Films.
