I just watched a very good documentary about an 80 year old spearfisher from the Togean Islands near Indonesia. I highly recommend it!

"Jago: A Life Underwater is based around the life story of Rohani, an eighty year old Bajau hunter who lives in the Togean Islands, Sulawesi. The story is told entirely from Rohani’s perspective, against the exotic backdrop of the Coral Triangle, and recreates events that capture the turning points in his life, as a hunter and as a man. We were able to bring Rohani’s past experiences to life by working closely with his family and friends in the village where he grew up. These are the people you see representing Rohani in the film at various stages in his life."
