Overview
Shipbreakers immerses us into a trade brutally tedious yet widely unknown. At an industrial port in India, laborers of different regions, dialects and religions come together to work and dwell amongst chaotic conditions—all in the name of making a living. Dynamic teamwork plays a crucial role in the success of any day at the shipbreaking yard. Amongst extreme heat, toxic waste, pollution, loud noise, poor sanitation and a constant threat of falling metal, underpaid laborers still maintain a unique air of optimism.
