Los Angeles, CAIn a remote Alaskan town DongSu, a snow crab fisherman, is struggling to make ends meet for his immigrant family. When the snow crabs he depends on suddenly disappear due to climate change, he and his family have to decide whether to stay or leave their new home behind.

Pronounced sa-la-jin, based on the Korean word for disappearing, Sarajin explores what we hold onto and what we let go of when the natural world begins to collapse around us.
