Scott Hicks’ screen adaptation of David Guterson’s best-selling novel. On San Pietro Island, shortly after the end of World War Two, local fisherman Kazuo (Rick Yune) is on trial for the murder of another fisherman. The hearings are attended by Ishmael (Ethan Hawke), a local reporter who was also the childhood sweetheart of Kazuo’s wife, Hatsue. As the hearings progress, Ishmael gradually begins to realise the extent of anti-Japanese feeling which still remains, and suspects that it could affect the course of the trial.
