Synopsis

Norah, Una and Iseult set sail from Ireland to escape the ravages of hunger, only to find a new set of dangers on their ocean voyage.

The so-called “coffin ships” are full of illness, squalor and grief, and the passengers can rely only on one another for comfort.

When a cruel, angry sailor refuses to show them mercy, it seems like even the women’s stories might be lost.

But they don’t know that the sea that swirls around the ship is listening.

The sea remembers everything.

And the sea demands justice.

A poetic and striking historical drama with a hypnotic ocean chorus.
