At the end of the world, where the Atlantic meets the Pacific, one can always count on challenging weather conditions and rough seas. The storms and the cold do not deter our heroes, seamen in the infamous Cape Horn islands, seeking livelihood and continuing masculine traditions far from home and close to danger. With spectacular black-and-white cinematography, in extensive vistas of the sea and the cabins of the ships, the film transports the viewer into another world, a familiar but unpredictable mesmerizing space, leading us through an exhilarating existential journey.
