Although fishing practices may have changed in recent years, life at sea has not. Pescherecci takes you on board an Italian fishing in the 1950s, where despite high waves the fishermen bravely cast their nets in the Mediterranean.

In this wordless, ten-minute film, unique colour images, the rhythmic sounds of the boat, the lashing waves and screeching seagulls capture life at sea. 

This short will be screened prior to the documentary The Knights of the Lagoon.
