Synopsis

A fisherman arrives at the beach, he comes alone. Other fishermen appear, they also arrive alone. They look at each other, they are dispersed on the beach, with the lines of the reeds in the sea, which united them in that place. In this documentary, we follow the arrivals and departures of different fishermen from Praia do Segundo Torrão, in Trafaria. We see the setting of the rods, the placement of the bait, and the launches. José António and Fernando are friends and know that beach well. We see and hear the different interactions between the fishermen, the greetings, the sharing. The beach is filled with gentlemen and fishing rods. We wait for the fish with the fishermen. We contemplate the sea.
