Documentary about one of the national treasures: the sardine and ways to ensure the sustainability of the species’ populations in Portugal.

Currently, fishery products are practically the only “wild” foods regularly consumed in Portugal and in many other countries. However, one of the risks we run when we fish for a particular species is its overexploitation. And, if we insist on this form of exploitation for some time, that population may regress or even become extinct.
