Overview

On Mermaid Island, Terengganu, several lives converge in this exploration of love and passion for the traditional craft of Malay boatbuilding: a translator from France, a local historian, a former client from Germany, the skillful masters who build the boats, and the potential heirs of the craft. This documentary takes us on a soulful journey through the oral history of a small community's traditions of boatbuilding.
