Synopsis:
"The Leeway-25 expedition is a bold attempt to sail from Norway to Greenland on a pre-Columbian raft, reviving a forgotten sailing technique. Over three nmonths, five strangers set out to build something bigger thana raft, a journey of friendship, trust and hope. Driven by a shared desire for freedom and adventure, the wind and sea always have the last word. As challenges mount, a question arises: could this all be a waste of time? Through fleeting encounters and shared moments, the film becomes a space to reflect on time, uncertainty, and how human connections expose what success, failure, and meaning truly are." Public event, but with limited space. First come, first serve ;)
