Fishing

‘Fishing’ tells the story of a son’s last ditch attempts at connection and reconciliation with his dying father Frank; who as the cancer takes over his body, is becoming increasingly bitter and frustrated at the prospect of losing control over what little time he has left. In the hospice, he dreams of one last “adventure” of his own, a return to one of his favorite fishing spots to ‘hit’ a Tench or two and sink a Pint of Kington’s at ‘The Royal’.
