Strange Fish – FREE Online – WNYRFF

Set primarily in Zarzis, Tunisia, and the waters of the Mediterranean Sea, Strange Fish tells the story of Tunisian fishermen who have been rescuing migrants and recovering the dead along the world’s deadliest migration route since the early 2000s. The film’s title, a reference to Billie Holiday’s “Strange Fruit,” links the deaths of African migrants en route to Europe and the lynching of African Americans. In Strange Fish, as the camera moves between images of the sea, fishing livelihoods, and shipwrecks, viewers learn how local fishermen have been affected by and responded to this violence, including their work to maintain a migrant cemetery.

In Arabic & French.
