Brothers Steven and Martin are going through a rough patch. Their hometown used to be a fisherman's paradise, but now fishing has been replaced by tourism. Steven has adapted to the new conditions and uses his father's old boat for excursions. Martin, on the other hand, is in constant conflict with his new landlords and dreams of returning to his favourite trade. Bait is an uncompromising debut that mixes formal experimentation and social commentary.
