STARRING
• Billy Campbell • Shawn Doyle
• Brian Downey • Ryan Doucette
• Gary Levert • Neil Matheson
This was a gruelling, impossible, exhilarating, and soul-filling shoot. Shot over 15 days with a remarkable crew and cast who knew going in that we would be at the fate of the elements. All brought their hearts to the project, wanting to pay homage and honour the stories and lives of those who went to sea. The North Atlantic Ocean was as much a character as the men in the boats.
