Louisiana filmmaker, Pat Mire, teams up with veteran filmmaker and cinematographer, Charles Bush, to capture the natural drama of handfishing in this award-winning documentary.

Friends and family accompany the handfisherman to the bayou banks for Cajun music, festive cooking, and storytelling, and to witness this increasingly rare tradition.

This is music as imagined landscape, a romantic sweep of Europe's past through the eyes of an American troubadour.

Latest album Hadsel was inspired by a short time spent exiled in northern Norway, an emotional return to form released in 2023.
