A dark thriller telling the story of Brookes (Peter Mullan) who, having lost faith in his own capacity for good, seeks to destroy everything that might lead him to the redemption he craves.
He takes charge of the cargo ship 'Gull', with his crew of weird but intense and mysteriously loyal hand-picked no-hopers from around the world, as it sets sail for Marseilles.
Meanwhile a young backpacker (Daniel Bruhl) has stowed away and stumbles across a secret on-board which Brookes and his crew must protect at all costs...
