Abdrift

The Captain of a container ship returns home to northern Germany after his latest trip. While his family and friends try to integrate him into the rituals of everyday life, the Captain can’t forget a decision he made during a storm 100 kilometers south of Malta. But all the steps he takes to confront his own failure show him that the world and the people around him are not willing to accept his guilt and its consequences.
