Guyana VODW - Pork knocking on the Essequibo



Someone dares to go further off the beaten path than most Guyanese to find what are probably some of the last pork knockers left out there. I don't know how many independent pork knockers there are left. The notes say that the video is old, but Guyana has a timeless quality about it. The only way that I can tell that this video wasn't shot yesterday is because of the cars in G/T.

Notes from Youtube:
"Porknocking for gold in the Essequibo region.
Guyana Gold Digger.

Documentary Film...Donkey years ago.

Use more treble for better sound.
The sound isn't clear, it was taken from a old VCR tape.
