Damien Roux (39 yrs), fisherman, uses the boat's mechanical net winch to haul in fishing nets from aboard his family's pointu (traditional type of wooden fishing boat from the coast of Provence) for the morning catch in the bay of Villefranche-Sur-Mer, France, 15 October 2022. Damien Roux is the fifth generation of fishermen in his family, which today operate one of only two pointu boats still actively fishing from Villefranche-Sur-Mer today. He, or his brother Loic, cross the bay to haul in the nets for fish and reset them twice a day, early morning and late afternoon, every single day of the week. (KEYSTONE/LAIF/Rebecca Marshall)
