The only movie where watching someone cast a fishing rod for 90 minutes is genuinely riveting.
Lars Chr. Bentsen is a Master Casting Instructor in the Federation of Fly Fishers, and he is internationally recognized for his skills in teaching fly casting. The film is about fly casting with a single-handed rod. Here in the film, he demonstrates the spey cast, five different presentation casts, how to fish with a shooting head, and we go through examples of casting in different wind directions. We see how Lars adjusts his shooting heads and how you can make loops on a shooting head or fly line yourself. Lars Chr. Bentsen also demonstrates the most common casting mistakes. We then see exactly where the mistake is and how to correct it. This section is valuable for many fly fishermen.

Direction
Niels Vestergaard makes wind direction genuinely cinematic somehow.
