It is the period when the Faroese sailors through dangerous voyages transferred spectacular wealth to the islands, a time when life changed from poverty to affluence and where a careless risktaking lead to dishonour and immorality.
The story portrays an image of people living in a sinister world while at the same time uncovering truths which often lie hidden.
