Homepark Productions' own Basil Mironer has traveled across the world to take part in writing and directing a film entitled WEIRD FISH. Feel free to click the following link to learn even more about this exciting project: Weird Fish Blog.
A synopsis of the short film WEIRD FISH (IKAN LANGKA).
Our film takes place in Kawal, a small fishing village located in Bintan.
The story of death and discovery follows Moro, an elderly fisherman having trouble coping with his last days.
Moro wants to be with his deceased wife for eternity. Tired of waiting to die he makes several attempts to take his own life but is too stubborn to actually go through with it.
During the film Moro develops a relationship with an old woman, a local fish gutter named Fifi. It becomes his last meaningful connection, a short love with another person before his death.
Open ocean boat rides, monsoons, the drowning of a young boy, traditional fishing methods, Muslim and Buddhist traditions, and a beautiful and unique look into the life in Kawal. These elements are just some of the things that the audience will experience in Weird Fish (Ikan Langka).
