The fishermen community of Kerala has braved all kinds of storms, both literal and metaphorical. The documentary film is an attempt to introduce them to the viewer, while also allowing them a glimpse into the community itself. From their obstacles to their indomitable spirit, from daily business to what is their profit-share equation with their employers and partners, the narrative deals with it all.
The strongest aspect of the film is its camerawork, followed by the manner in which it ties it narrative with Kerala floods, the Ockhi tsunami and the very ethos of the community itself. Further, the viewer is also allowed the opportunity to interact with fishermen and women from Kerala's Neendakara region, even if only by way of the screen. On the whole, the documentary proves to be a skilled piece exhibiting potential and notable insights into a specific group of people and their practices.
