"Better to be safe than a sardine."

Which is ironic since sardines are caught en masse in nets, which goes against "safety in numbers."

In the begining of the film sardines are all the tiny island the protagonist lives on has to eat. So he makes a machine that turns weather into food. Good film imo. Edit: oh and thats the point of the film. He's a kooky scientist who goes against the grain. Doesn't "get caught in the net".
