Fish Story
Sometime in the 1980s, Caspar Salmon’s grandmother was invited to a gathering on the Welsh island of Anglesey, attended solely by individuals with fish surnames. Or so he says. Thirty years later, filmmaker Charlie Lyne attempts to type myth from actuality as he searches for the truth behind this fishy tale.

Located in the northern element of the Venetian Lagoon with a single hour ferry trip from Vience, the island of Burano is truly a paradise for these in enjoy and people who have unique adore for colors. Properly recognized for the lace creating as effectively as colourful houses. This kind of stunning houses carry new air to the town which is entirely different from the historic environment of Murano or Venice. Arriving here, guests come to feel as if they were wandering on the streets in fairy tales. The brightly-painted walls extend all by means of Burano, not just along the principal tourist canals. This local home painting tradition originated back to the colour scheme of fishing boats. The regional residents can not paint their residence freely. When they want the houses to seem more colorful, permission from the authorities is should. Let’s have a appear at the colourful tale homes in Burano.
The town of Burano covers the island with many modest canals acting as thoroughfares

My favourite is traveling. I really like to create about gorgeous locations and tourism events.
Really loud background music spoils it
i love videos like this sm
I got to see this at Sundance in January. Definitely one of my favorite shorts that I saw there that week.
Brilliant, we love the Anglesey Sea Zoo. It’s just up the road from us and is a fab day out.
Loved this story, produced a fair few chuckles. Incidentally on the Jeremy Vine show earlier they mentioned a young girl who attended, by the surname Turtle. Jaw dropped – they didn’t give her a dead turtle to eat, surely? Nope, they found a tin of Turtle soup from somewhere. Phew!
A film to make you giggle. Fab.
wow…very good
well that’s a story….im not 100% but I made aquariums for a sea zoo in Anglesey…?. sure I have pictures somewhere.. but not sure of date !!.. nice film..
That was delightful!
Mr. (or Mrs.) [Insert name of any fish]: "I had the weirdest phone call today".
fantastic
Haha, I was taken to Anglesey Sea Zoo as part of a marine biology degree at Bangor.
Love it ♥️ from Oz
This is lovely. Reminded me a bit of This American Life
Fantastic ??
Great Story… took my kids to Angelsey years back…. didn’t go to the Sea Zoo but might next time…
Ace.
the background music is too loud for me to make sense of the conversations
Love the soundtrack – and it’s a compelling story – thanks for making 🙂
Who are the monsters who disliked this video?
i love this story. thanks very much
that was bloody amazing! thanks for posting this 🙂
Well made and interesting.
This video made my day and it’s not even 7am. Most amusing. There was a lot of laughter throughout and I laughed along.
Brilliant. Jeremy Vine was right. Great story.
Totally wonderfully lovely! And inspiring! Thanks!
It is such a delicate documentary. True Art!
Cheers to the team to bring thing heartwarming story to light!
a delightful story. I love the humor. Be sure to have close caption turned on so to catch the funny bits
Pity the music is soooo loud
He’s too annoying to listen to
"I’ve opened so many aquariums they all blend into one."
A fishy story.
As a non native English speaker, the biggest take away for me from this video is how many words I presumed were just English names are in fact types of fish.
Heard about this on Jeremy Vine today; absolutely brilliant story and really well put together. Nice work Charlie
Free food, damn.
bloody brilliant
Buenísimo!
obviously a piece of clickbait, but it worked: i was hooked
What a lovely story! I really enjoyed that!
Fabulous production. Great story and brilliantly illustrated. Well done.
Lucky thing they didn’t invite the present leader of the Scottish Nationalists.
She’d have bankrupted them!
Mind you, her predecessor would have been easier to accommodate!
Incidentally, they probably called the venue a ‘sea zoo’ because that translates better into Welsh than ‘aquarium’.
Great ending, had me kraken up
Brilliant. Thanks.
