FISHERMAN'S FRIENDS
Inspired by a true story, FISHERMAN'S FRIENDS tells the heartwarming tale of a Cornish all-male group that go from singing sea shanties to shooting up the charts. Taken by their performances, music manager Danny gambles on the success of this amateur outfit made up of hardy fishermen and lifeboat volunteers. As he vows to turn this crew into the world's oldest buoy band, he finds more than a good record deal. When you open your heart, life, love and friendship can play the most harmonious tune.
