Alfred Garnes is a working-class sailor, who has recently become the father of a third child. He and his childhood friend Sigbjorn Kvalen are working on a merchant ship in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean when World War II breaks out. They are unarmed civilians on the front lines of a war they never asked to join. The two men struggle for survival in a spiral of violence and passing, where at any moment German submarines may attack their valuable vessels. The war sailors have one goal: to survive-and to return home.
