Synopsis

What is the price of freedom? Paul Johnson sailed the world all his life. He loved, drank and lived recklessly, never truly living on land. Now he is turning eighty. Both he and his boat are unfit to sail. He drinks a litre of vodka a day and contemplates his life, his death. What lies at the end of such a journey? Is there loneliness? What is the relationship between freedom and selfishness? Does fulfilling a dream always have to have a bitter end?
