Alex Camilleri
1h 34m - MT
Jesmark is a young Maltese fisherman who supports his family by fishing with a wooden boat inherited from his father. Dwindling catches, imposed legal restrictions and a competitive fishing market lead him to a financial crisis that is deepened by unexpected expenses for the health of his newborn son. Desperate to provide for his family financially, Jesmark enters the world of illegal fishing, turning his back on generations of fishing tradition. Luzzu is the first Maltese film ever screened at a major festival, the Sundance Film Festival, and the main role is played by naturist Jesmark Scicluna, who won an award for his impressive acting performance.
