During a solo sailing trip to the remote Ascension Island, German doctor Rieke (Susanne Wolff) picks up a distress signal from a sinking boat full of refugees.

With help hours away, Rieke feels compelled to intervene, but she must come up with a way to tackle the impossible task of rescuing 100 people with her small yacht. Directed by Wolfgang Fischer. Based on a true story.
