Eleven people —five men and six women— board on a raft for a three-month journey across the Atlantic. The trip is part of a scientific experiment conducted in 1973 to study subjects such as violence, sex and group behavior. The interaction inside the vessel was recorded on film as a diary. More than 40 years later, this documentary reunites the survivors in a replica of the raft, built in studio, to get testimonials from the participants.
Winner of the best film award at the CPH:DOX 2018.
