A community screening of a film about fishermen, fathers and sons, and what gets passed down will screen at the Majestic Theatre Malanda on Saturday, September 5 – presented in collaboration with the Yungaburra Men’s Shed.
Bucks Harbor takes audiences into a rugged fishing community on Maine’s Atlantic coast, where life is governed by the seasons, the tides and the lobster catch, and survival is a trade passed down from father to son. Directed by American photographer Pete Muller, the film follows fishermen young and old as they navigate a working life where a man’s worth is measured by the strength of his back.
Variety called it a “wistful and humane portrait of hardy souls young and old.”
