74% Informative
US -Korean film-maker Sue Kim team-up with Malala Yousafazai to document the haenyeo community.
The community of women from Jeju Island , South Korea , have been free-diving (without oxygen) to harvest seafood for centuries .
With most of them in their 60s , 70s and 80s , their traditions and way of life are in danger as fewer younger women take up the profession.
The Last of the Sea Women is available on Apple TV+ from 11 October 2024 .
Only 5% of the haenyeos attend a training school to become a hooner.
The film introduces two young women from another island who have found a following on social media.
One of them had to learn to swim at the age of 30 to do the job.
