:25:32
It takes a lot of fish...
:25:34
for the pittance
the wholesalers will give them.
:25:37
Maybe the old men allow
themselves to be exploited.
:25:40
If the younger men
did the selling on the dock...
:25:43
maybe things would be different.
:25:52
- 'Ntoni
- What is it? Eh?
:25:55
Did you hear? They called.
:25:56
I know why he's surly tonight.
:25:59
He'd rather fish for girls!
:26:02
What is it, eh?
:26:05
All I know...
:26:07
is he doesn't like work.
:26:11
That's it: 'Ntoni himself
should try it...
:26:13
with his younger brothers and friends.
:26:15
Stand up to the wholesalers,
set the prices.
:26:18
See if they can put an end
to their exploitation.
:26:21
The idea seethes in 'Ntoni's head.
:26:24
Save your energy.
:26:27
The sea's a miser tonight
and the night's black...
:26:31
and there's far too many of us
for what little fish there are.
:26:34
The sea ofTrezza would have to be
as big as all Catania.
:26:39
Now that we need it,
the sea's holding back.
:26:43
This is the sea God gave us.
It'll have to do.
:26:49
Yes, Grandpa, God gave us
this bit of sea and these rocks...
:26:54
and these boats
that can't go out very far.
:26:57
But, Grandpa, God didn't invent
those connivers...
