Fucking "A" watched it with the parents. GREAT flick.
OP: Thanks...... I owe you a beer or two if your ever in a Hurricane....
Pretty sure the salt is coming from the water. That’s pretty much how they get salt from the great salt lake. They flood shallow ponds then let the water evaporate off. They don’t have guys duck walking in the ponds though.
I thought it was good. Those are hard working folks that make do with assholes and elbows work ethic to get the job done. It's neat the kids had a little school shack to educate and socialize them. It's weird they bury their pumps and hoses...I guess that's easier than hauling back and forth and storage at home.
I fell asleep about 3/4 the way through though and finished it up this morning.
One thing I didn't catch was....
Is the water salty or is the ground? Does the salt leach up from the soil or does the salt separate from the water?
It reminds me of rice or catfish farming as far as the ponds go, but only 6" deep. Tamping the ground over and over would be exhausting...same with digging the damns.
Really good. We have it good in the states. I watched it without subtitles.
