Alamar

documentary

Here we follow a father and his 6yo son as they travel to a preserve off Mexico's coast to fish and lead an idyllic life before mom takes the kid off to Italy and the horrors of civilization.

We were supposed to like this guy but I didn't which ruined the film for me. He struck me as crude, ignorant...maybe loving but a life with him...spearing animals, dragging fish around by the lips, etc...would be extremely limited and would prepare the boy poorly for the life ahead.

It was short though...that was good.
