Parlatuvier is a serene fishing village in Tobago. This well-made and evocative documentary tells the story of the men and their families who dedicate their lives to fishing. But more than this, as the story unfolds the stream of consciousness narratives draw on the symbols evident within fishing culture, and from it larger patterns emerge and parallels are drawn to describe the similarity between fishing and life.
