PlotA seasoned sailor embarks on a solo voyage in the Indian Ocean aboard his 39-foot yacht. His solitary journey takes a perilous turn when his vessel unknowingly collides with a drifting shipping container, leaving a gash in the hull.

Faced with this challenging predicament, the sailor remains calm, displaying resilience in the face of adversity.

His survival instincts kick in as he contends with subsequent storms that threaten to overwhelm his already debilitated vessel.
