00:00It's funny how we come into this world, how we first see it.
00:07We see it all, all of it, and then we get in the way of it.
00:12Hey, you taking pictures of us?
00:14We lose it.
00:15Come back here!
00:16And in losing it, we lose ourselves.
00:21Oscar came three months early.
00:24Poor Kitty couldn't even cry for help.
00:26Oh, you got a sticky shutter here.
00:27What do you say we take a closer look, see if we can get the old girl snapping again?
00:33You're welcome.
00:34Jasper's Cove doesn't belong to the people who live there anymore.
00:37Here we go.
00:38Exciting potential in our little town for a new project.
00:41Most people your age are moving out, they're not moving in.
00:43Pleasure to have a fellow photographer here in Jasper.
00:46You have a kid, right?
00:47Yeah.
00:48I've been giving your son a few pointers on his photography.
00:52This is where the magic happens.
00:56Vic?
00:57What are you doing here?
00:58Hey, kid!
00:59Give me that camera.
01:00Hey!
01:01This is my nephew.
01:02You might want to keep a closer eye on him.
01:05Can I help you?
01:06I'm with the Department of Child and Family Services.
01:08Has Oscar's diagnosis been reviewed lately?
01:11If I lose Oscar, I don't know what I'm going to do.
01:13Fishing built this town, our home, your home.
01:16It's only prolonging the inevitable.
01:18I don't know how to do anything else.
01:20Life is hard, and it is just going to get harder too.
01:24Bring me your film when you're done,
01:25and we'll find out what that eye of yours can see.
01:33You have so much to share with the world.
01:35I just want people to see what I see.
01:40Did you take this?
01:41It was me.
01:43You can't live your whole life behind a lens.
01:46Sometimes it's better to be on the other side of it.
01:51Make sure each and every frame counts.
01:57Buckle up, kiddo.
01:58You're in the driver's seat now.
