Føroyar (The Faroe Islands)
The film depicts life in the Faroe Islands in the 1960s. It's a small society that has maintained its connection to the past, with old customs and ways of life, despite significant developments in trade and industry. Here, fishing remains one of the fundamental pillars of the Faroese economy. The film follows five men, crew members on the same trawler, from the moment they leave their homes in five different places in the Faroe Islands until they meet in the capital, Tórshavn, after long and difficult journeys to set sail on the trawler.
Cast: Oscar Hermansen
