Alice, a blind person, sets off on an unusual voyage on the sailing ship Zawisza Czarny. Full of doubts and anxiety about the wisdom of her decision, she slowly starts to see the value of the experience. This isn’t just a trip. It’s hard work, it’s an adventure, but most of all it’s a chance for her to perceive her life differently. Alice is one of the blind people who make up half of the ship’s crew. Until the very last minute of the film we doubt whether she is indeed blind, since she behaves as if she can see. She doesn’t even wear dark glasses. We observe Alice changing, as the ship sails from Holland to Poland, across the North and the Baltic Seas.
