    • Synopsis
    • "Parsian Shila" begins its trip with 35 crew, 5 Iranian who are in top position like Captain and engineers and 30 fishermen from 2 African countries Ghana and Kenya. we see their ordinary life, cooking, cleaning, watching the movies and preparing the boat for a though war. they call their families probably for the last time as there is no signal in ocean. they are doing hard job, working 12 to 15 hours per day, living in 2-meter cabin and far from their families to make money. it takes time more than usual to start fishing, it seems fishes are escaping from them, they resist. so African fishermen begins to pray and ask God to help them and catch fish. Iranian captain asked them to help him. few days later they could be able to catch fish but this ordinary job is very violent. it's like a war, they will be happier to kill more fishes but they are humans, they celebrate Christmas and have fun together. we see through poetic images how fishes' eyes are gazing at camera.
