The pacing is somewhat meandering, which reflects the rural life it documents. The atmosphere really pulls you into the everyday struggles of the fishing community while showcasing Lisments' often controversial methods. The cinematography feels very raw, almost like you're right there with the fishermen, and the practical effects are just the real-life grit of their work.
