Synopsis
In Peninsula Mitre, the Gauchos del Mar brothers embark on an unprecedented 53-day expedition on foot, carrying 35 kg backpacks, across the easternmost tip of Tierra del Fuego—an untouched, uninhabited region in Argentina. Their goal is to reach and surf a world-class wave at the Cabo San Diego Lighthouse, the easternmost point of the South American continent.
To get there, the brothers must overcome extremely harsh terrain, food scarcity, and a hostile climate. With no communication, they document the region to share their environmental message, rejecting consumerism and bringing us closer to a simple way of living to protect the Mitre Peninsula forever.
