Fishing Festival (1961)

Westmann Isles, Iceland. Various shots of anglers setting off in fishing boats for some deepfishing as part of the second International Festival of Iceland. The boats move out from the Fridarhofn Harbour and move out to sea; people on board prepare their rods. Several shots of the people fishing, angling; large fish being hoisted from the water. The boats move back into the harbour; large fish are unloaded before a large crowd. Huge fish are weighed and hung on pegs (looks rather uncomfortable to me, even if you are a dead fish). Cuts exist see separate record. FILM A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ. EXPLORE OUR ONLINE CHANNEL, BRITISH PATHÉ TV. IT S FULL OF GREAT DOCUMENTARIES, FASCINATING INTERVIEWS, AND CLASSIC MOVIES.
