Plot Summary

The series is an extended version of the critically acclaimed Norwegian film, following two best friends, Alfred and Sigbjørn, who are ordinary sailors working on a merchant ship when World War II breaks out. They are suddenly thrust onto the front lines of the war, serving as vital cogs in the Allied effort transporting essential supplies across the Atlantic. For years, they battle brutal storms, constant threat from German U-boats, and the psychological trauma of witnessing death and destruction, all while being far away from home and family. Meanwhile, back in Bergen, Norway, Alfred’s wife, Cecilia, struggles to raise her children in the shadow of the occupation, never knowing if her husband is alive or dead. The narrative is a poignant and harrowing account of the sailors' immense sacrifices and the hidden war fought by the merchant fleet. When the war finally ends, the two friends survive and return home, only to find that their community and country have forgotten their heroism, and they are now wrestling with severe psychological scars—the lasting effects of post-traumatic stress. The story then pivots to their agonizing struggle to reconnect with their families and find peace in a world that has moved on, highlighting the often-overlooked trauma of those who survived the war at sea and the personal battles they faced long after the final shot was fired.
