GRINGO TRAILS is a documentary, and former Kickstarter project, about one of the most powerful global industries: tourism. The film examines backpackers, who are the key to opening the door to the industry in developing countries. Anthropologist and filmmaker Pegi Vail looks at the long-term effects of travelers on cultures, economies, and environments worldwide through their most important souvenirs… their stories.
