Gangway to a Future
Idealistic and inexperienced, a crew of four embark on a rescue mission to the Mediterranean
In Rotterdam, an untrained crew partners up with a dedicated yet naive team of volunteers to take an old trawler to the Mediterranean to help with the refugee crisis. Following a host of setbacks, the crew navigate their way to the Libyan coast, where thousands are desperately attempting the perilous crossing to Italy. Though not everyone can be saved, their ambitious rescue mission enables some to take their first steps towards a new life.
