The Fishermen

Kalastajat

Details

Three fishermen fight for survival on a remote island in a world similar to the end of the 19th century, where some kind of cataclysm has occurred. They desperately try to fish, even though all the fish have disappeared from the sea. Eventually something emerges from beneath the surface, but not what they had expected.
