Plot
Although Mermaids have been traditional symbols of fertility and a sexuality so powerful as to be a danger to shipping, details of their reproductive processes have been scarce. The film reveals the cycle of laying, fertilising and hatching as well as the previously secret role of storm-wrecked sailors.
