Overview

César runs a bar along Marseilles' port, assisted by his 23-year-old son, Marius. Friends since childhood, Fanny and Marius love each other, but Marius has a secret wanderlust: every ship's whistle stirs a longing for foreign lands. When M. Panisse seeks Fanny's hand in marriage and when a departing clipper needs a deckhand, Marius and Fanny must decide who and what they love most. César, with his generous, wise spirit, tries to guide his son.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A sun-drenched portrait of young love caught between the heart's competing desires: home and the sea. This is a film about the aching choices we make and the people we hurt in pursuit of what we think we want.
