The Last of the Sea Women - Official Trailer | Apple TV+
Their way of life is in danger of disappearing. From Producer Malala Yousafzai, Director Sue Kim, and A24 comes The Last of the Sea Women, a breathtaking look at the lives of the Haenyeo -- the sea women of South Korea's Jeju Island. The Last of the Sea Women premieres October 11 on Apple TV+ https://apple.co/_TheLastoftheSeawomen
In "The Last of the Sea Women," an extraordinary band of feisty grandmother warriors wage a spirited battle against vast oceanic threats. Often called real-life mermaids, the haenyeo divers of South Korea's Jeju Island are renowned for centuries of diving to the ocean floor - without oxygen - to harvest seafood for their livelihood. Today, with most haenyeo now in their 60s, 70s, and 80s, their traditions and way of life are in imminent danger. But these fierce, funny, hardworking women refuse to give an inch, aided by a younger generation's fight to revive their ancestral lifestyle through social media. Peering into what drives haenyeo young and old, this moving documentary zeroes in on their tight-knit friendships, savvy independence, and infectious sense of empowerment, unfolding into an uplifting tale of women taking on world powers to protect their beloved ocean and inspiring a new generation.
The co-production hails from Extracurricular, the production company of women's rights activist and Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai, partnering with Apple TV+ to create original programming, and A24, who is also collaborating with Apple on the upcoming highly anticipated Steve Martin documentary.
Yousafzai and Erika Kennair, Extracurricular's president of productions, will produce alongside A24.
