F.I.S.H.I.N.G
One million Dutchmen (out of 16 million) play soccer. Almost two million fish at least once a year. Fishing might be the most remarkable sport in the world. The documentary V.I.S.S.E.N (FISHING) dives into the world of Dutch fish and fishermen. Above and under water, on the IJ, at the coast, on the North Sea, in the cities, in the polder and on and by lakes and rivers. The film is a personal, filmic search for the “primordial fisher” in mankind and a portrait of the Netherlands by and on the water. V.I.S.S.E.N is also about what moves the fishermen. Who are the people that fish? Is fishing a hobby, a sport, an escape or a primordial instinct one cannot repress? What goes through your mind when you fish, when you catch something, or when you do not catch anything. And: what's it like for the fish, getting hooked?

Reviews
It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
A story that's too fascinating to pass by...
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
