Araya (film)
''Araya'' is a 1959 Venezuelan feature film directed by Margot Benacerraf and co-written by Benacerraf and Pierre Seghers. Plot The film depicts the lives of labourers who extract salt from the sea off the Araya Peninsula in Venezuela. Their method for extracting salt, virtually unchanged for centuries, depends on gruelling physical labor, but provides a dependable, if meagre, living for the men and their families. The film ends with a recently built plant for mechanised salt extraction that could eliminate the community's traditional source of income. Filming ''Araya'' was produced by a two-person crew consisting of Margot Benacerraf and her cameraman Giuseppe Nisoli. On arriving at the arid and barren landscape of the Araya peninsula on the north coast of Venezuela, Benacerraf remarked it was like "arriving on the moon".
