When a strong, competent, impressively well-equipped German doctor embarks on a solo long-distance sail over the Atlantic, we figuratively perch on her boat, amazed at her skill and courage. But as the title hints, the precise routines and thrilling challenges of sailing are about to be eclipsed by an unexpected encounter that creates a profound moral dilemma. Salt Spring Festival’s next Best of the Fest is a drama as powerful as a racing wave, with implications as deep as the ocean. Styx was brilliantly filmed without any CGI.
