Daughters of the Sea is a revealing portrait of women’s lives in the fishing industry on the Galician coast of Spain. It follows three women who work at sea – Jacqueline, Maria and Tomasa – who share the same passion for their community, but also similar experiences of sexist discrimination. Their compelling testimonies highlight the bravery of these women and the long road that still lies ahead to achieve gender equality today.
Daughters of the Sea was highly commended at the Grierson Awards 2022 and has been selected for 14 international festivals, winning four awards. It was also commissioned by A Coruña Provincial Council for its education programme.
