A rich father in a fisher village plans to take on the project of writing his life story. But first he has to take on his own family, and everybody wants something...
Wealthy, aging patriarch Thordur assembles his scattered heirs to discuss the future of the family fishery. But bringing everyone together unleashes a storm of long-repressed sexual abuse, lingering suspicions, sibling rivalries and incestuous passions. Ultimately, it's a heartless battle between the past and the future that culminates in a night of explosive rage.—Sujit R. Varma
