    • Jesmark, a struggling fisherman on the island of Malta, is forced to turn his back on generations of tradition and risk everything by entering the world of blackmarket fishing to provide for his wife and newborn baby.
      First Maltese feature ever to compete in a major international festival, and a rare glimpse into the island in cinema, starring both non-actors and professionals in the lead roles.
