The Summer of Flying Fish

The Summer of Flying Fish follows Manena, the determined daughter of a wealthy Chilean landowner named Pancho. As Pancho becomes obsessed with controlling the carps in his artificial lagoon, Manena navigates her own romantic experiences and heartbreak.

The narrative delves into the contrasting worlds of Manena's privileged life and the struggles of the Mapuche Indians, who seek access to the land. This poignant exploration of youth and social issues is enriched by the film's unique setting and cultural context.
