Deep sea fishing - that's working to the limit. The ships of the German deep sea fishing fleet often stay at sea for months. The hunt for the black halibut takes the team to the Arctic Circle. Storm and snow are part of everyday life here, work on board is dangerous. Great trust in their comrades and their own skills makes the crew a tight-knit community. This documentary accompanies the crew on board one of the largest deep-sea trawlers in the German fleet.
