"Our Coast" is a short documentary that delves into the life of James Lawson, a young fisherman deeply connected to British Columbia's coastal waters. The film explores the challenges he faces due to declining fish stocks and regulatory frameworks that often favor corporate interests over local fishing communities. Through James's preparations for the upcoming fishing season and his reflections on his experiences, the documentary paints a vivid portrait of a way of life under threat and underscores the cultural and ecological significance of community-based fisheries.
