Robinson, the Filipino fisherman - hope despite empty nets
Synopsis
The focus of the film is on the fisherman Robinson Lucito and his wife Minerva. They hunt tuna, look for mussels in the monsoon rains, struggle with the effects of the pandemic and try to save some money to escape the cycle of poverty. They represent the dramatic consequences of climate change, overfishing and the destruction of reefs affect the way of life of fishermen in the Gulf of Lagonoy, and how hard the family has to work to wrest something from life. But despite all the difficulties, the Lucitos do not allow that their courage to face life, optimism and love for the sea to be taken from them.Cast and Crew
