About the event
LUZZU
Jesmark, a Maltese fisherman, contends with a newfound leak in his wooden luzzu boat. Barelygetting by, he sees his livelihood—and a family tradition from generations before him—imperiledby diminishing harvests, a ruthless fishing industry, and a stagnating ecosystem.
Desperate toprovide for his wife and their newborn son, whose growth impediment requires treatment, Jesmark gradually slips into an illicit black-market fishing operation. Alex Camilleri, the director of the film, will give a short introduction before the film!
This film is part of our collaboration with local independent producers to present a special screening series showcasing a selection of indigenous Maltese films that have shaped the island's recent cinematic landscape!
