Turn of the Tide: The Surreal Story of Rabo de Peixe

The production recounts how, in 2001, a fisherman from a humble village on the island of São Miguel was the first to discover a large number of bundles of cocaine on the coast.

The arrival of this high-purity drug transformed the life of a community that, until then, had never had contact with the substance, unleashing a wave of addiction and triggering a complex police investigation.

Through multiple perspectives, the documentary gathers the testimonies of those involved and direct witnesses of this surreal true story that forever marked the lives of the inhabitants of Rabo de Peixe.
