In this sensitive, artistically playful and visually pure film, a boy is to face a considerable challenge. As part of his fishing community’s annual ritual, he must kill his first crab in order to become a man and gain his father’s approval. But our hero doesn’t want to murder the little crab adorably winking at him. What will the boy’s father do? (Anifilm)
