This intimate portrait of the family of the first Slovenian who successfully completed a solo circumnavigation with his sailing boat, Jure Šterk, is brimming with humour and relentless family dynamics and drama. It is a story of an unusual three-member family, where each member supports one corner of the house... and the sailing boat the fourth.

DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT: I didn't decide to make this film because of my father's sailing feats and his tragic disappearance. The main driving force behind it were the numerous moments in our family which were sad and bitter but at the very same time comical and absurd. They mirror the complexity of relations in our lives.
