2012 documentary
Rating: 16/20
Plot: An intimate look at commercial fishermen doing their job.
Aquaman as directed by Stan Brakhage.
I'm trying to decide if my favorite shots are the waves of netted fish tumbling over each on the boat, the fish heads trying to escape the boat, a seagull (apparently wounded) trying to find a way out, the shots of seagull flying overhead, or the extended sequence where we get to see a guy fall asleep. No music, no narration, no narrative. This just throws you into to the working lives of fishermen we barely even see and immerses us in the sweaty chaos.
