DESCRIPTION:Dir. Margot Benacerraf. 1959\, 90 mins. 35mm. In Spanish with E
 nglish subtitles. On the coast of the Araya Peninsula\, in Venezuela\, the
  sun beats down on the sea\, sand\, and men below. Salt is the central res
 ource of this land where nothing grows\, and a community exists by extract
 ing it manually day and night. The process\, breathtakingly captured here 
 on black-and-white celluloid and described in vivid detail by an offscreen
  narrator\, unfolds through a series of arduous and unforgiving traditions
 . After the salt is harvested from the ocean and dried\, men rake and pile
  it into high pyramids\, while women weigh it into sacks. Observing this r
 emarkable sequence of steps\, there is a stark contrast between the lappin
 g edge of the sea\, the vulnerability of human skin\, and the sharp crysta
 l of salt. The physical gestures involved in the salineros’ way of life as
 sume a spiritual precision—the community sustains itself on these actions 
 and resources alone\, and they have been unchanged for centuries. \n\n	Tic
