FISHPEOPLE-A Low Key Docu On Oceanfarers


Fishpeople 2017
(a Netflix documentary)




To some,ocean is their home.For others,it’s a form of catharsis.It is love,livelihood and life itself for many.For milions like us,it’s a a scary ,unmanageable,wild place,a deep unknown where we fear to tread.Oceans  ask questions off most,for a chosen  few they provide answers.
Fishpeople focuses on  six oceanfarers who have dedicated their lives to the sea, from surfers and spearfishers to a long-distance swimmer, a former coal miner and a group of at-risk kids on the streets of San Francisco.They share their journeys,views about life and deep waters,and how oceans have given meaning to their lives.
There are some breathtaking shots and insights in the documentary,but overall ,it cud have been a more engaging one.Fishpeople didn’t quite meet my expectations.
