海上漂泊二十年後，他孑然一身，成了個孤獨的酒鬼水手，只有用錢換來的短暫慾望滿足。在一次開往世界盡頭的航行中，他決定向船長請假，返鄉探望母親，和自己塵封的過去…。阿根廷電影大師又一次抒情自省之旅，從孤獨港口、到冰封雪地，一路展開的旅程在凝視風景的同時，也望進主人翁哀傷的流離過往，詩意飽滿的影像令人摒息。

In the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, Farrel, a seaman, asks the captain for permission to go ashore once they reach the port of Ushuaia, the southernmost town of Argentina. Farrel wants to return to his birthplace where he hasn't been back for or the past twenty years, and to see if his mother is still alive. Having reached the cluster of snow-covered houses where he grew up, Farrel discovers his mother is indeed still living but someone else has become part of the family.
