Sveeja(left) puts all her belongings at high places tight with a rope, since she is afraid for a next Tsunami.
During the Tsunami she was locked up by the water, now she has nightmares and is afraid to go near the sea.
regurly a MSF psygologist visits her for therapy.

Victims of the Tsunami are struggling to survive after the Tsunami, their main business as fisherman have been made impossible by destroyed boats and nets.
while improvising and take the risk to fish the sea using a inferior boat, local people don't want to eat the fish, so prizes go down to 20% of before.

The Indian Government claims to have the situation under control and don't accept foreign aid, in the meantime they move fisherman away from the beaches to remote areas, where their chances of survival will be even less.
