A Danish ship is hijacked by Somali pirates. This is mostly the story of how the crew deals with being hostages and the negotiations that happen between the pirates and the company that owns the ship. The film has two basic settings; that of the claustrophobic and increasingly shabby ship and the clean, sparse cool office of the Danish company. It is a nice contrast in relation to the fact that the people are negotiating over the lives of real people. And that is the crux of the film.
Recommended if you can find it.
