Von Feuerland nach Tijuana Part 1 # 20.03.2010 # In Focus

# DW-TV takes off on an 8-part documentary series that travels through Latin America the long way, from the tip of South America to Mexico's border with the U.S. state of California, meeting people who describe their lives and countries. We take a look at a region of the Americas with a turbulent history,facing enormous challenges for the future. Our journey begins at the "end of the Earth", in Tierra del Fuego, a ragged coastline of crags, rocks and cliffs furrowed by calving glaciers. The sparse local population says this is where the world begins.
