Transcription
Content of the film
The film is set in the coral reef of Banco Chinchorro, listed as a "biosphere reserve" by UNESCO on February 2, 2004.[4][5] Nathan, a 5-year-old urban boy, finds his father Jorge, a Mexican fisherman, during the holidays. They go fishing together; a bond between the father and his son is renewed, driven by the beauty of nature.
Between fiction and documentary, it is an initiatory experience for the small child and contemplative for the viewer.
