In the turbulent and mystical waters of Southeast Alaska, a first generation fisherman captains her fishing vessel alone offshore. Employing a hook and line approach to fishing, Kat Murphy is committed to a sustainable commercial fishery. Back on land in her small Washington port town, Kat struggles to make ends meet, and grapples with the challenges of maintaining a way of life deeply embedded in the natural world. This short documentary delves into themes of interconnectivity, resilience, and our profound dependence on nature.

The Grace is currently on the festival circuit.
