Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Best for anyone after some adrenaline and adventure lovers. Popcorn viewing in the best sense.
The mood
Exciting.
The pace
Lean, with little time wasted, at 1 hr 1 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
  • It's in Russian, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1977: an older pace and style.
  • Not for anyone who finds explosions tiring.

About young graduates of the maritime academy and their first voyage at sea. About the difficult test of professional and human endurance that had to be endured by both the crew of the trawler "Kaira," which suffered a disaster during a storm, and the crew of the rescue ship Poseidon under the command of Captain Chigrinov, where the film's hero, Slavka Chigrinov, served, demonstrating resourcefulness, courage, and bravery in times of danger.
