- Summary:
- Fishermen are at the front-line of changes that appear on the ocean. Storms impact their catch, rising sea levels endanger their island. The changing climate impact the rhythm of ocean life, shaking up life on land, shaping knowledge of the seascape and reshaping cultures. Fishermen must adapt to the new ways of the sea, altering the way they interact with their environment, changing the rhythm of their lives. Renate Bijlholt sailed and dived into the ocean with two fisherman on the island of Siargao, the Philippines. She documented and researched their relationship with the seascape, producing a ethnographic documentary that shows how the changing climate impact the fishermen´s daily life.
