Inland Sea

Japan’s 86-year-old lone fisher Wai-chan sails daily while three women anchor the last days of a dying port. An 84-year-old claims her son was snatched for subsidies, the 90-something shopkeeper feeds stray cats with deadstock fish. Modern Japan swallows tradition whole, these women refuse to sink quietly.
