In original language:

Le catture di una giornata a pesca

Santo ha 42 anni, e suo figlio Salvatore solo 17. Da quattro anni segue il padre a pesca, perché ama il mare e vuole continuare il mestiere che da generazioni fa la sua famiglia. Ma Santo è preoccupato: fare il pescatore è diventato sempre più difficile, poco pesce e pochi aiuti economici alla piccola pesca
