The Age of Swordfish

A marvelous documentary that portrays a daily act such as fishing, but in a more traditional way, because it is a method used by the ancestors (by the way, this was one of the last times that type of fishing was practiced). We can also see the housewives washing clothes in that beautiful crystal-clear sea, which, although it may not seem so, is just as important as fishing. Both are doing their part to sustain the household. And all of this is accompanied by exquisite cinematography from Vittorio De Seta.

De Seta retrata a brutalidade da sobrevivência humana, nos acompanhando de um grupo de pescadores em busca do peixe-espada, uma iguaria.
De Seta retrata de uma forma crua e até assustadora a pesca, mostrando o sangue e tripa do peixe após a pesca, de uma forma bem cruel. e mesmo sendo bem brutal, ainda é necessário para nossa vivência. tanto que depois ocorre uma comemoração.
a forma que o pôr do sol é filmado aqui é belíssima, a composição de cena de Vittorio De Seta é realmente algo que eu não consigo explicar de tão belo...

A bit less interesting than the Bluefin Tuna (I think) from Sea Countrymen and the method they use in that. However, I still wonder why these are only around 10-11 minutes; I would love to see a full feature length version of something like this. Vittoria De Seta is awesome and I love his short films.
