Vanishing Sail (2015)
Often intimate and moving tale of honest and simple island life
Often intimate and moving tale of honest and simple island life . Held together by traditions continually under threat as but always Hope on the horizon . Beautifully filmed and movingly narrated by the film maker . This is a truly heartfelt story that should move all but the cynical . Shows an often unrecorded village life in the holiday playground of the Caribbean . A backwater where life a float to fish or trade are the unavoidable essentials of daily life . No where on the planet is the lot of the fisherman an easy one but he depends in turn on the boat builder . He remains at the heart of many coastal villages supplying those simple graceful craft . A great film that will find a space in your heart with a glimpse into the other lives that just go on getting on against the odds and of course Mother Nature at her most destructive . It deserves more exposure .
