Mauritania’s Railway Journey Through the Sahara | WIDE | FULL DOCUMENTARY

Mauritania is a Sahelian country that, after fighting terrorism, is returning to life. One of its proudest achievements is the "iron train", which transports iron ore to the Atlantic. A source of income for the entire country, 90% of which is desert and has been independent since 1960. For writer Olivier Weber, travelling on these wagons is a way of meeting desert workers and shopkeepers back in their villages. And at stopovers, to live with nomads and the lords of the dunes.
The Mauritanian Sahara offers landscapes that are unique in the world, with its ergs, its gigantic monoliths so dear to Théodore Monod, its thousand-year-old oases and the legendary town of Chinguetti, with its ancestral library and exceptional manuscripts.
