Skipper & Co.

1974 · 81 min

A gentle, unhurried story of unlikely companionship, drifting between quiet melancholy and small warmth.

Overview: A quiet film about the friendship between four people: an old skipper who has gone ashore but has not really adapted to his new life. A boy who has run away from his cold and identity-less concrete environment. And a young woman and a young man who have fled from their respective Eastern European countries.
How it feels: Warm, melancholic, earnest and light. Measured and easy to follow.
About: Friendship, isolation, found family, freedom
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
