The Ebro River Delta ballad
Documentary about the agricultural transformation experienced in the Balada area, in the Ebro river Delta. Between the Montsià and the Baix Ebre is the Balada agricultural zone, where they transform the lands from the mechanization of the work in the field. The waters cover everything. They plant rice, harvest it, and bag it.
