LUZZU the Sundance award winning debut by Alex Camilleri. Luzzu is a gripping and heart-rending drama about the stark challenge of preserving legacy and identity in a fast-changing world.

Jesmark, a fisherman struggling to provide for his young family on the island of Malta, is faced with an agonising choice: repair the traditional wooden Luzzu fishing boat his family has owned for generations or decommission it in exchange for a government pay-out and work in the illicit black-market trawling operation.

Casting real-life fishers as his stars, Alex Camilleri’s debut is a neo-realistic classic in the making
