Description
In the light-filled and tower-drilled crowded city of Doha, three fishermen escape to the sea. Every night they take their small boat out into the dark still waters. They are far away from everything that reflects the transformative modernity of the city and closer to the reflection of the moonlight. With their fishing equipment and their resilience, they catch as many fish as they can and sell them at the market back in the city
