Synopsis
Sometime in the 1960's, in the heart of Africa, a new fish was introduced into Lake Victoria as a scientific experiment. The Nile Perch, a voracious predator, went on to extinguish almost the entire stock of the lake’s native fish species. The new fish multiplied so fast that today its white fillets are exported all around the world. This booming multinational industry of fish and weapons has created an ungodly globalized alliance on the shores of the world’s biggest tropical lake.
