Darwin's Nightmare
Synopsis
In the 1960s, in the heart of Africa, the Nile Perch was introduced into Lake Victoria as a scientific experiment and eventually extinguished almost all the native fish species. It multiplied so fast that its white fillets are exported globally. Ex-Soviet cargo planes come daily to collect the latest catch in exchange for weapons and ammunition for the uncounted wars on the continent.
