Summary
:
It was one of the biggest layoffs in Canadian history. The 1992 cod-fishing moratorium threw nearly 35,000 Newfoundlanders out of work. A third of them were women. This film features five women from small coastal communities in Newfoundland and Labrador whose lives were irrevocably changed by the devastation in the cod fishery.
