Review

A young man Johannes is living most of his time on a boat with his father and his mother since their father have a business to do salvages to old boats. His father, the captain of the ship, is not taking his responsibilities very well anymore and his crew is not happy because the captain have been away couple of days on a city drinking and work is not started. When the captain returns to the ship he have a woman with her, Sally who is not a honourable woman. Johannes fells in love with this woman and that causes conflicts with Johannes and his father with serious consequences.

I liked this movie. It has good dialogue, interesting story and characters which had personalities. Characters were opened in good pacing and their stories and dynamics between others are well built. It is a sad but realistic kind of story of human life where not everything goes as wished. Broken people who treat each others badly and hurting ways still have some hope in the end of the tunnel when Johannes and Sally found deeper connection and find a way to treat each others more loving way.
