In Downeast Maine, a small fishing community sits on a stretch of rugged coastline chiseled between the forest and the ocean. Here, boys are shaped into men by harsh winters, the bounty and brutality of the sea, and the rigid codes of their fathers. In his debut feature, director Peter Muller explores the inner lives of these fishermen, young and old, through immersive footage and intimate interviews. With remarkable insight and empathy, BUCKS HARBOR captures a community where a man’s worth is defined by the strength of his back, while also uncovering a deeper emotional complexity beneath the surface.
