Now an old man, a lifelong fisherman sets out to sea to ply his trade as he has done all of his life. Hes not had much good fortune of late and has gone almost three months without a major catch while others are catching one or even two large marlins every week. Many of the locals make fun of him and some say hes too old now to be fishing but he still loves what he does and is encouraged by a young boy who loves him and has faith in him. On this day he hooks the fish of a lifetime, a marlin that is larger than his skiff. As it slowly pulls him out to sea, the old man reminisces about his past, his successes and the high points of his life. When he does finally manage to land the fish he has to fight off sharks who are feeding on it as he tries to return to his Cuban village.
Scarred by relentless time and a long string of bad luck, white-haired Cuban fisherman Santiago swallows his pride every afternoon when he returns home empty-handed; 84 days without a catch could break the spirit of most men. However, Santiago cannot afford defeat. And on the 85th day--a warm, rosy morning of September, the month of the big fish--Santiago sails out to sea as usual; with a bit of luck, his fresh, sweet-tasting sardines, hooked through both eyes, can guarantee success. Then, under the hot midday sun, the longed-for miracle happens: Santiago has hooked an iridescent, 18-feet black marlin, the answer to his prayers. But as a fierce battle of wills commences, the question emerges: what happens if the lean predatory fish is the least of indomitable Santiagos problems?
