Competition - Grand reportage

Strange Fish

By Giulia Bertoluzzi


How does it feel to see a dead body floating in the sea like a strange fish? Through the voices of the anonymous heroes of Zarzis, a fishing village in southern Tunisia, we discover how the migrant tragedy has affected a town and the fishermen community. A powerful portrait of Salah Mecherek, captain of a sardine fishing boat, Chemseddine Bourassine, President of the Association of the fishermen and Chamseddine Marzoug, ex-fisherman, volunteer for the Red Crescent and current gravedigger for the many nameless unknown that wash up on the coast.
