synopsis
A quiet young man learns about adult behavior in this sensitive Norwegian film. LP is an only child of a middle-class Norwegian couple. He steals a sailboat to celebrate his graduation from junior-high school. Unfortunately he doesn't know how to sail. He is saved from crashing by pretty 20-year old Line who comes aboard. Together they spend a few days of innocent skinny-dipping. Their adventure is interrupted when LP's dad finds them and board the ship. Father and son gain new perspectives about each other and their relationships as they sail with the beautiful girl.
