SWAMP PEOPLE

Deep in the Atchafalaya Basin, the swamp isn’t just a landscape—it’s a living link to the past. In Swamp People, cameras shadow the descendants of 18th‑century French Canadian refugees who have called these bayous home for generations. When alligator‑hunting season arrives, these fiercely independent families risk life and limb to harvest the bounty of their wetlands—and to keep a vanishing way of life alive.

As coastal wetlands vanish and modern pressures encroach, Swamp People shines a light on America’s fastest‑disappearing frontier. This is more than a hunt; it’s a fight for cultural survival, where every gator skin carries the weight of ancestral pride and the promise of future generations.
