Throw-net fishing is a long practiced art in Hawaii that is passed down between generations. It is a style of fishing that is often done with a close family member or friend, allowing for the strengthening of important relationship bonds. In a remote part of Hawaii, a deathly ill father and net-maker longs for his two estranged sons to find forgiveness. At his request, the two brothers reluctantly set out with a throw-net to catch their father a kala fish. Along the way they are forced to revisit childhood memories and express long-held feelings which helps them heal the deep hurt that drug addiction has brought to their family. In the Hawaiian language, the word β€œkala” refers both to the unicorn fish as well as the act of forgiveness.
